Poland will take delivery of its first HIMARS rocket launchers on Monday, defence minister Mariusz Blaszczak said on Sunday, confirming earlier announcements that they would arrive mid-May.
The U.S. State Department in February approved the potential sale of long-range missiles, rockets and launchers to Poland, including 18 HIMARS launchers.
"Tomorrow, the first HIMARS launchers will be in Poland," Blaszczak said, having announced this month that Poland would establish a HIMARS service centre for maintenance of the launchers.
