Poland Leads in Deploying Groundbreaking US Air Defense System
Poland achieved a milestone in its air defense modernization by integrating its Wisła system with the Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS), a key component for coordinating various defense elements. This integration, hailed as a historic moment for the Polish Armed Forces, was lauded by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defense Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz. The IBCS, described as the “operational brain” of the Wisła system, represents a significant step towards securing Polish airspace and draws lessons learned from the war in Ukraine. The U.S. also praised this achievement, noting that even the American army is only beginning to implement this system.
