Since 2022, the United States has provided Poland with more than $11 billion in loans and guarantees for defence acquisitions. These include key systems such as the Patriot air defence system, HIMARS rocket launchers, and Apache helicopters.
Following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Poland has significantly increased its military investment. It currently allocates the highest share of its national income to defence among NATO members.
Warsaw confirmed plans to spend 4.7% of its gross domestic product on defence in 2025. This figure is set to rise further, reaching 5% in 2026.
