Poland launches Miecznik frigate, signs submarine and hydrographic ship contracts

Poland's Navy has seen a surge in modernization with the launch of the first Miecznik-class frigate, a submarine contract signed after 13 years of delays, and a deal for two hydrographic ships. This marks a significant acceleration in naval procurement, reversing decades of underinvestment. The move aligns with Poland's broader military buildup amid regional security concerns.
