Once the 96 aircraft are delivered, the Polish military will be the Apache\u2019s second largest user in the world, preceded only by the U.S. military, the release said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poland has intensified its military modernization efforts following Russia\u2019s invasion of neighboring Ukraine in February 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Owing to the latest deal, the Polish military will be able to replace its outdated Soviet-designed Mil Mi-2 and Mi-24 helicopters with new aircraft. The contract marks the largest acquisition of Western-made helicopters in Poland\u2019s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the plan, the aircraft will be deployed to the 1st Aviation Brigade in Inowroc\u0142aw. Located in the country\u2019s west, the brigade is tasked with providing aerial support to the Polish land forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The foreign military sale to Poland was approved by the U.S. State Department on Aug. 21, 2023. In a statement, the Defense Security Cooperation Agency said that, in addition to 96 helicopters and related gear and services, Poland aims to secure&nbsp;a wide range of weapon systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These include 1,844 AGM-114R2 Hellfire missiles, 460 AGM-179A Joint Air-to-Ground Missiles and 508 Stinger 92K Block I missiles, among others, according to the agency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once the 96 aircraft are delivered, the Polish military will be the Apache\u2019s second largest user in the world, preceded only by
