Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki shared the information on Twitter.

"The Ukrainian army will purchase 100 Rosomaks from us, which are manufactured in Siemianowice Śląskie. Rosomak is a state-of-the-art combat vehicle. The purchase will be paid for by the EU and the US," he wrote.

Defence24, a Polish outlet, claimed that Rosomak armored personnel carriers are the flagship of the Polish Armed Forces, which is a licensed version of the Finnish Patria AMV armored personnel carrier. The Rosomak is equipped with a 30mm cannon and can also attack helicopters.

  • On March 29, the Polish government approved a national program to stimulate the production of ammunition amounting to PLN 2 billion (EUR 426.7 million).
