The expansion includes plans to establish a local office, build a Polish sales organisation and recruit engineers and technical personnel. The company is also considering setting up assembly capabilities for its interceptor systems within Poland.
At the same time, Nordic Air Defence has signed a Letter of Intent with Polish defence companies WB Group and Tantalit. The agreement outlines plans for strategic cooperation in the development and deployment of counter-drone defence technologies.
The partnership will focus on integrating Nordic Air Defence’s K100XR high-speed kinetic interceptor into WB Group’s counter-UAS ecosystem. The interceptor is designed as a scalable and cost-effective kinetic system intended to defeat hostile drones.
The companies also plan to explore technical integration of the K100XR interceptor into Tantalit’s artificial intelligence-enabled command-and-control ecosystem. This would allow the system to support sensor fusion, AI-assisted targeting and coordinated counter-drone defence operations.
The agreement also opens the possibility of broader industrial cooperation between the companies. Potential activities include the production or assembly of the interceptor system in Poland to strengthen European defence industrial capacity.
Under the proposed framework, Nordic Air Defence will remain responsible for the design and development of the interceptor system. Tantalit and WB Group will contribute software, systems integration and battlefield networking technologies.
Technical workshops and feasibility studies are expected to begin in the coming months. These activities aim to support Polish counter-UAS programmes and explore potential export opportunities for the system.
The announcement reflects broader security cooperation between the two NATO allies. Poland has become a key component of NATO’s eastern flank and one of Europe’s largest defence spenders as it continues to modernise its armed forces and strengthen air defence capabilities.
Karl Rosander, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of Nordic Air Defence, said the initiative responds to increasing demand for counter-drone technologies. “This initiative reflects the growing need for scalable and cost-effective counter-drone defence systems across Europe,” he said.
Rosander also emphasised Poland’s importance as a defence market and partner. “Poland is one of the most important defence markets in Europe today, and we look forward to building long-term industrial and technological cooperation with leading Polish partners to help develop a modern, layered counter-drone defence architecture for Poland and Europe, combining interceptor technology with AI-driven command systems and battlefield networking.”
