Patriot interceptor deliveries to Poland will be delayed, top general says
LMT•Deliveries of some US weapons systems to Poland, including PAC-3 MSE Patriot missiles, will be delayed, Polish army operational commander General Ireneusz Nowak said. Previously contracted weapons deliveries to some European countries were reportedly likely to be delayed as the Iran war draws on weapons stocks.
1. Delays expected
Deliveries of some US weapons systems to Poland are set to be delayed, including interceptors for the Patriot air defence system, Polish army operational commander General Ireneusz Nowak said on Monday. “They’re going to be delayed for sure,” he said of PAC-3 MSE Patriot missiles at the Warsaw Security Forum.
2. Broader delivery impact
Nowak said there would be additional delays to deliveries already scheduled or under contract. Previously contracted weapons deliveries to some European counterparts were reportedly likely to be delayed as the Iran war draws on weapons stocks.
