The event also served as a platform for a statement of cooperation between MBDA and PGZ.

The joint statement of cooperation outlines the intent of the companies to forge a partnership to propose the solution to Poland to meet its requirement for a tank destroyer that can tackle massed armour formations.

Under the agreement, MBDA and PGZ will also explore export opportunities.

MBDA Poland sales director Adrian Monks said: “Pairing the combat-proven MBDA Brimstone missile with the diverse range of current and future Polish platforms provides the ability to deliver rapid military capability for Poland and for wider markets, whilst strengthening our co-operation with PGZ Group on missiles.”

The company has agreed to transfer Brimstone missile technology and know-how to PGZ. MESKO, a PGZ company, will undertake missile production.

PGZ Deputy CEO Sebastian Chwałek said: “We are growing our co-operation with MBDA into new areas. We have agreed on the ways of offering those solutions in export markets.

“By combining our competences with the experience of our British partners, we are able to achieve a lot and deliver the most modern solutions to both Polish and allied armed forces.”

Brimstone is a long-range, all-weather performance missile that can engage line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight targets.

The missile can defeat active protection systems (APS) and provide salvo-firing and moving target capability.

Additionally, MBDA has signed contracts with MESKO at MSPO 2019 to bring the latter into its global supply chain.

The contracts will cover components for the CAMM air defence missile family and the Brimstone strike missile.
