Not all of them, but the first units. This is because the 18th Division will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2022\/12\/07\/us-state-dept-clears-sale-of-abrams-tanks-to-poland\/\" target=\"_blank\">be equipped with the Abrams tanks.<\/a> These helicopters work great with Abrams tank[s],\u201d Polish Defence Minister Mariusz B\u0142aszczak said in a statement released by the ministry at the time. \u201cTogether, they constitute an enormous force, a force of resistance &#8230; we want to use them to deter our opponent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 has led to Polish leaders doubling down on plans to strengthen the country\u2019s defenses against a potential attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poland in April signed a deal worth about $4.75 billion to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2022\/04\/05\/poland-signs-475-billion-abrams-tank-deal-as-russias-war-speeds-procurements\/\" target=\"_blank\">buy 250 M1A2 Abrams SEPv3 tanks<\/a> from the U.S. and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2023\/01\/04\/poland-signs-deal-to-buy-2nd-batch-of-us-abrams-tanks\/\" target=\"_blank\">subsequent deal for an unspecified amount of additional tanks in January worth $1.4 billion<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pending congressional approval, the sale of Apache helicopters would also include 210 T700-701D engines; 97 AN\/ASQ-170 modernized target acquisition and designation sights and AN\/AAR-11 modernized pilot night vision sensors (otherwise known as M-TADS\/PNVS); as well as fire control radars and common missile warning systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sale would also cover 1,844 Hellfire missiles and 96 training missiles; 460 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/industry\/techwatch\/2022\/12\/29\/lockheed-doubles-joint-air-to-ground-missile-range-in-flight-test\/\" target=\"_blank\">Joint Air-to-Ground Missiles<\/a>; 508 Stinger 92K Block I missiles; and 7,650 Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System II guidance sections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Apaches would come with manned-unmanned teaming unmanned aerial system receivers and ground kits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Boeing will supply the Apache helicopters, which it will produce in Mesa, Arizona. Lockheed Martin in Orlando, Florida, will provide major systems such as the M-TADS\/PNVS as well as Hellfire weapons and Joint Air-to-Ground Missiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poland has requested offsets, the DSCA announcement states, which will be defined in negotiations between the country and the contractors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poland is cleared to buy Apache helicopters to go with its new Abrams tanks, the U.S. State Department
