As written in the DSCA message, the Polish authorities applied for the purchase of 1,400 bombs along with parts and accompanying equipment.
“The proposed sales will improve Poland's ability to face current and future threats by increasing its ability to carry out effective air-earth strikes, strengthening its ability to protect the sovereign Polish territory and improve its ability to comply with NATO requirements”-it was written.
What are the GBU-38/B bombs?
GBU-38/B is a gliding air bomb with the smallest caliber in an American arsenal. A bomb weighing 110 kg is equipped with a GPS navigation system and is mainly used to destroy smaller stationary goals on Earth, and the US Air Force has them from 2005.
This is another purchase of air ammunition from the USA this year after the State Department at the beginning of May granted Poland to buy 400 AIM-120D air rockets for the price of up to $ 1.3 billion.
