Poland’s Government has announced it will formally request the Raytheon Company combat-proven Patriot Integrated Air and Missile Defense System from the United States Government.
During the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) process, Raytheon will also partner with Poland’s Government and industry to finalise offset and industrial participation plans. Raytheon has already signed eight contracts and more than 30 letters of intent with Polish industry.
Wes Kremer, President of Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems, said: “Poland’s formal request is an important milestone toward becoming the sixth NATO Patriot country and the fourteenth Patriot partner nation.
“Raytheon will continue supporting the US and Polish Governments through the Foreign Military Sales process. Poland’s Patriot solution provides a proven capability against the evolving threat of ballistic and cruise missiles, and advanced aircraft and drones.”
