Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said on Friday following a meeting with United States (US) Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin that Washington will be providing the country with eight AH-64 Apache attack helicopters
The US Army will provide us with Apache helicopters from its own stock, even before signing the contract for the purchase of 96 helicopters. This is a very important capability, which is why I am grateful to Secretary Austin for this decision,โ he noted, according to Trend News Agency.
The Polish official added that the training of Polish pilots will begin in a few weeks.
These helicopters will be settled in the eastern parts of the country and close to Russia.
