Poland has signed a $735 million contract with the U.S. for the supply of JASSM-ER missiles, Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz said on Tuesday.

The country is spending heavily to bolster its armed forces since Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Warsaw is spending around 4% of its gross domestic product on defense this year and last week announced an agreement with the U.S.

The missiles have a range of around 621 miles, according to the defense ministry.

Poland is depopulating and being culturally enriched. And they’re focused on a non-threat instead. Geniuses.

WHAT!!!!! POLAND should be demanding these missiles like Zelensky demands and gets missiles!!! Ukraine doesn’t pay, so why should POLAND! The US is ripping them off by asking for money. Doesn’t everybody know that the US will give you missile systems for free! I got a missile system for free without even cutting out and sending in coupons to the Pentagon.

I saw on Redacted that the Russians are jamming many of the weapons we’ve given Ukraine.

I wonder if we can do the same.

Every time they announce a big sale of these gold plated MIC nonsenses, the first question should be:

What is the annual production of this wonder weapon ?

In this case it is 500. Rising sometime in the future to 1000.

Wow ! That’s almost three per day !

Russian and China will be on their knees with fear !

“Good news, Poland is where President Trump put our V Corps headquarters”

Why is that good news. They will be the first targeted when this escalates to WW-III.

I put reasons in that post, and don’t let your imagination runaway from you, Poland and our NATO alliance being weak and vulnerable is not the path to avoiding Russia starting the nuclear attack you think they have planned.
