Poland: Regime orders Swedish submarines to bulk up navy

Source: Deutsche Welle [German state media]

“Poland and Sweden on Monday signed a €4.2 billion ($4.8 billion) arms deal at a ceremony in the Polish seaport of Gdynia on the Baltic Sea. In the deal, Poland’s State Treasury Armaments Agency ordered the purchase of three new submarines from Swedish aerospace and defense contractor Saab. A Monday press release from Saab outlined the sale, saying the company would begin delivering the vessels in 2030, with the final sub delivered in 2038. … Currently, Poland only has one submarine, an aging Russian vessel. To bridge the gap between now and 2030, Warsaw’s navy will be given use of the Swedish submarine HMS Södermanland.” (06/29/26)
