The Polish Government announced on its website the recent delivery of the first five M142 HIMARS rocket launchers. The Polish Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister, Mariusz Błaszczak, said, “Today we are accepting HIMARS for the Polish Army. This equipment is proven in the hands of the Ukrainians by stopping the Russian invasion.“
