Deputy head of the Ministry of National Defense: Ukraine has agreed to transfer anti-drone technologies to Poland

As the deputy head of the Ministry of National Defense noted in an entry published on the X platform, the talks focus on military and industrial cooperation, as well as technology transfer.

"Ukraine has agreed to provide Poland with the anti-drone technologies we need," wrote the deputy minister.

In the background there is talk about MiGs

On Monday, Tomczyk said that one of the topics of his visit is the possible transfer of two Polish MiG-29 aircraft to Ukraine. In return, Poland would receive access to Ukrainian drone and anti-drone technologies.

He then said that the agreement was "close to finalization" and was "at the stage of finalizing the details."

On Monday, they also discussed deepening cooperation within the anti-ballistic coalition (countering missiles with other missiles). The coalition includes: Poland, Ukraine, France, Germany, Great Britain. Britain, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and the Netherlands.

Poland joined it in September and, as the deputy head of the Ministry of National Defense pointed out, it can benefit from high-quality P-18PL radars. This means that the radar, which operates at a distance of 2,000 km, will be located in Poland and will work for our country, for NATO and for Ukraine and this coalition. But the next thing, and the most important one, is building the rocket. A rocket that can fight another rocket. And for this we need capabilities from other companies and countries, he emphasized.

Kosiniak-Kamysz talks at the Pentagon

Tomczyk also recalled that Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz is conducting talks in the US regarding Poland's security. The head of the Ministry of National Defense is in Washington on Tuesday together with Deputy Minister Magdalena Sobkowiak-Czarnecka. The plan includes, among others: meeting with US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

Before leaving, Kosiniak-Kamysz emphasized that the talks would be important for the issue of a permanent American base in Poland and arms cooperation between the two countries.

This is a visit that precedes the final review of American troops in Europe, the minister noted in a recording published on X.

The talks will also concern the service center for PAC-3 missiles used in Patriot systems. At the end of October, Magdalena Sobkowiak-Czarnecka announced that such a center was to be established in Poland and would be the only center of this type outside the United States.

The US is undergoing a six-month review of its military presence in Europe, which is expected to be completed by the end of the year. According to reports so far, possible changes may primarily affect American forces in Germany, Italy and Spain, and some of the soldiers may be sent to NATO's eastern flank. As part of this process, a decision may also be made regarding a permanent US Army base in Poland.
