[위종민]

폴란드의 IAMD/IBCS (  INTEGRATED AIR AND MISSILE DEFENSE / BATTLE COMMAND SYSTEM )를 지원하는 패트리어트 PAC3+ 발사대 48개, 미사일 644발 등 도입 건이 FMS 승인을 받았습니다.

규모는 150억 달러인데, 미국이 따로 지원을 해주는 건지 ㄷㄷㄷ 

도입이 완료된다면 폴란드는 현재 운영중인 패트리어트 5개 포대에 더해 총 13개 포대의 패트리어트를 운용해 미국에 이어 나토 2위의 패트리어트 보유국이 된다고 합니다.

WASHINGTON, June 28, 2023 - The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of Poland of an Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) Battle Command System (IBCS) and related equipment for an estimated cost of $15 billion.  The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today. 

The Government of Poland has requested to buy phase two of a two-phase program for an Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) Battle Command System (IBCS) enabled PATRIOT Configuration-3+ with modernized sensors and components, including:  forty-eight (48) PATRIOT M903 Launch Stations; up to six hundred forty-four (644) PATRIOT Advanced Capability (PAC) 3 Missile Segment Enhanced (MSE) missiles; forty-eight (48) Launcher Interface Network Kits (LINKs); twelve (12) Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense Sensors (LTAMDS); and twelve (12) Large Tactical Power Systems (LTPS) for the LTAMDS.  Also included is communications equipment; tools and test equipment; support equipment; generators; spare parts; repair parts; Global Positioning System PPS (SAASM) receivers; modification kits; U.S. Government and contractor technical, engineering, and logistics support services for planning, execution, Systems Integration and Checkout (SICO), flight test activities, field office support and training; and other related elements of logistics and program support.  The total estimated program cost is $15 billion. 

This proposed sale will support the foreign policy goals and national security objectives of the United States by improving the security of a NATO Ally that is a force for political stability and economic progress in Europe. 

The proposed sale will improve Poland’s missile defense capability and contribute to Poland’s military goals of updating capability while further enhancing interoperability with the United States and other allies.  Poland will have no difficulty absorbing this equipment into its armed forces. 

The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region. 

The principal contractors will be Raytheon Corporation, Andover, MA; Lockheed-Martin Missiles and Fire Control, Grand Prairie, TX; and another original equipment manufacturer to be selected to develop and produce generator sets for the LTPS.  The purchaser has requested offsets.  Any offset agreement will be defined in negotiations between the purchaser and the contractor(s). 

Implementation of this proposed sale will require approximately forty (40) U.S. Government and/or forty-five (45) contractor representatives to travel to Poland for an extended period for equipment de-processing/fielding, system checkout, training, and technical and logistics support.

There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale. 

This notice of a potential sale is required by law.  The description and dollar value are for the highest estimated quantity and dollar value based on initial requirements.  Actual dollar value will be lower depending on final requirements, budget authority, and signed sales agreement(s), if and when concluded. 

All questions regarding this proposed Foreign Military Sale should be directed to the State Department's Bureau of Political Military Affairs, Office of Congressional and Public Affairs, pm-cpa@state.gov.

Between Poland’s recent $1.9bn purchase of the Common Anti-Air Modular Missile (CAMM) and 22 PILICA+ air defence batteries from MBDA, and the prospective $15bn purchase of 48 Patriots from Raytheon and Lockheed Martin, Poland will have one of the most comprehensive air defence systems in Europe.

The news comes on the same day that Northrop Grumman announced the delivery of an IBCS training program for Polish troops, two years ahead of schedule. 

48 Patriot systems provide a vast capability

Should Poland retain the 5 Patriots batteries it currently hosts from the US and Germany, the addition of 48 Patriot launchers to Poland’s next-generation WISŁA air and missile defence programme, enough for 8 batteries, should give the country a total of 13 batteries, more than any other partner in Nato except the US.

Until recently, Poland’s main air defence systems included an extensive very short range defence consisting of hundreds of Soviet-era anti aircraft guns and missile systems, as well as domestically produced MANPADS. It was also the only country the region with a medium-range air defence system, in the form of a single battery of the Soviet-made S-200 Vega.

The Patriot missile long-range air defence system is an all-altitude, all-weather air defence system to counter tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and advanced aircraft. The missile has a range of 70km and a maximum altitude greater than 24km. The minimum flight time is less than nine seconds while the maximum is three and a half minutes.

The new PAC-3 missile has increased effectiveness against tactical ballistic and cruise missiles through the use of advanced hit-to-kill technology. The missile guidance system enables target destruction through the kinetic energy released by hitting the target head-on. 16 PAC-3 missiles can be loaded on a launcher, compared to four PAC-2 missiles.

Poland’s air-defence devlopment

Modernisation of air-defence systems in Europe has been galvanised by the recent invasion of Ukraine by Russia. Poland is one of ten countries that are part of the European Sky shield Initiative (ESSI), lead by Germany, that uses collective purchasing to reduce the cost of procurement.

However, it is expected that Poland’s outside participation with CAMM and the Patriot system will slow down the activity of the ESSI, according to the Centre for Eastern Studies (OSW).

During the war in Ukraine, Poland, which shares a border with the besieged country, has been one of the most generous donors in the region, supplying considerable military, humanitarian and financial aid.
