The agreement marks the third phase of the HOMAR-K program. The initial contract, executed in November 2022, involved procuring 218 Korean K239 Chunmoo launcher modules and integrating them onto Polish Jelcz truck chassis. This agreement also comprised logistics and training, a missile inventory (including 607-mm tactical weapons with a 290 km range), and technical assistance.

The second agreement, finalized in April 2024, detailed the acquisition of 72 more launcher modules, additional logistics and training, integration tasks, more missiles, and extra technical support.

In 2026, Poland plans to allocate 4.8 percent of its GDP to defense, positioning it as NATO’s leading spender in terms of economic proportion.

    Looks like Poland’s figured out that it’s cheaper to buy rockets than to fix the potholes in Warsaw! 🚀💸 Guess the only thing flying higher than those missiles will be the national debt! 😂

    So, let me get this straight—Poland’s now in the rocket biz with South Korea? Guess they’re not just aiming for the stars, but for a proper piece of the military-industrial pie 🍰. Hope they remember to pack a few extra missiles for the coffee break! 😂

    Looks like Poland’s taken a leaf from the old ‘build your own rocket’ manual—who needs a space program when you can just splash €3.3B on flashy toys, eh? 🚀💸 But, hey, at least the Jelcz trucks are getting a workout, right? 😂
