Poland will sign a contract with South Korea to acquire tanks, howitzers, and fighter jets as Warsaw seeks to bolster its military defenses amid the ongoing Russia–Ukraine war, Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said in a July 22 interview with Polish news magazine Sieci.

Poland is finalizing negotiations with South Korea to buy 48 FA-50 light combat fighter jets, 180 K2 tanks, and 670 K9 self-propelled artillery from Hyundai Rotem, Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI), and Hanwha Defense, respectively, Defense News reported.
