“Within a year, contracts for K2 tanks, K9 and Krab gun howitzers were canceled. Now we have Himars,” writes Mariusz Błaszczak on the X website.
The former head of the Ministry of National Defense referred to the information of “Rzeczpospolita” about the contract for the purchase of Himars artillery sets.
Although we signed a framework agreement for 486 Himars artillery systems a year ago, negotiations on the details have not yet begun. There is no chance that we will buy that much
– we read on the newspaper’s website.
Błaszczak’s entry
In a commentary on the article, Mariusz Błaszczak argues that such a government action means losing a historic opportunity for Poland.
Another contract is lost. This government is missing a historic opportunity to build one of the strongest armies in NATO in Poland. In less than a year, contracts for K2 tanks, K9 and Krab gun howitzers were canceled. Now we have Himars, i.e. artillery that can hit targets up to 300 km away
