Saying that until the MQ-9B Reaper UAVs ordered from the United States are delivered, the MQ-9A Reaper UAVs will be used, Blaszczak added: "(This is) another investment in Poland's security. We have signed a lease agreement for MQ-9A Reaper for the Polish army. We will benefit from the MQ-9A Reaper until we receive our own UAVs." Blaszczak said that the agreement aimed to increase the ability of the Polish Armed Forces to obtain intelligence data.
