He noted that the contract must be signed until December 10, and the funds for the transaction come from the Armed Forces Support Fund. “There is no problem with financing” – assured the deputy prime minister.
Kosiniak-Kamysz also referred to the opposition reports of the alleged opposition of the Ministry of Finance towards expenditure. “That's all that was the subject of agonizing in the internet or media space, is not confirmed by either at the Ministry of Finance or at Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego” He said, adding that the purchase of missiles was part of the transformation and modernization plan of the armed forces.
As the WNP.pl portal writes, the US administration already in May 2025 informed about Polish plans to purchase 400 AIM-120D missiles, and the upper limit of the order value was set at $ 1.33 billion. Earlier, in 2024, Poland contracted 445 older version C rockets in the USA for $ 850 million.
AIM-120D-the basis of modern aviation
As WNP.pl writes, AIM-120 AMRAAM bullets have been the main combat weapons of US and allies for over three decades. They are conducted radiolocation and allow you to combat goals out of sight, reaching a speed above Mach 3. Depending on the height and speed of the aircraft-the current versions, the existing versions had a range of several dozen to about 100 km. Variant D, which Poland has decided to do, is characterized by even greater reach and modern combat capabilities.
