According to a release issued by the Armament Agency, the first agreement signed by and between the Agency, and the MBDA UK company, covers the delivery of 44 iLauncher systems, and several hundred CAMM missiles. The agreement has a value of GBP 1.9 bn. (ca. PLN 10 bn. net). The deliveries would be finalized between 2025 and 2029. The off-the-record information that we have obtained suggests that the above refers to around 750 missiles. Among 44 launchers, six would originally belong to the “Little Narew” system, and they would be tailored to being used in Pilica+.

The second agreement has already been concluded with the PGZ-Pilica consortium, involving the following entities: Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa S.A., Zakłady Mechaniczne Tarnów S.A., PIT-RADWAR S.A., PCO S.A., Jelcz Sp. z o.o., MESKO S.A., Ośrodek Badawczo-Rozwojowy Centrum Techniki Morskiej S.A., Wojskowe Zakłady Uzbrojenia S.A., and Wojskowe Zakłady Elektroniczne S.A. The agreement pertains to the acquisition of 16 Pilica+ systems and the upgrade of the six existing systems to the new standard. The work is to be completed between 2025 and 2029 – with a PLN 3 bn. budget (gross). Back in March another agreement was signed, regarding 22 Bystra radars – expected to become a part of the Pilica+ system.
