A procurement programme for the Polish Armed Forces of 190 sets of FLYEYE-class miniature reconnaissance unmanned aerial systems (UAS), each set comprising four UAVs. The contract was signed on 28 May 2026 in Ożarów Mazowiecki by Grupa WB president Piotr Wojciechowski and the head of the MoD Armament Agency (Agencja Uzbrojenia), Maj. Gen. Artur Kuptel, representing the State Treasury. According to the Polska SAFE programme table the order is worth 1,533,667.0 thousand PLN, i.e. about PLN 1.53 billion gross (the Defence24 portal reports about PLN 1.3 billion net). Funding comes from the European SAFE instrument, whose funds are transferred to Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego for the Armed Forces Support Fund (Fundusz Wsparcia Sił Zbrojnych). FLYEYE systems are used for aerial imagery reconnaissance using electro-optical heads enabling day- and night-time observation. Most of the sets will go to the operational forces and the Territorial Defence Forces, and for the first time also to the reconnaissance platoons of tank battalions. The contractor is Poland's Grupa WB (the executive contract was concluded by WB Electronics S.A.), and the UAVs were designed in Gliwice. The contract was concluded on 28 May 2026; deliveries remain to be carried out.

Significance
The FLYEYE purchase is part of what Grupa WB describes as the largest orders of such military equipment not only in the history of the Polish Army but also of Europe, carried out in parallel with the GLADIUS and WARMATE systems. The order increases aerial imagery reconnaissance capabilities at multiple levels, introducing reconnaissance UAVs for the first time to, among others, the reconnaissance platoons of tank battalions. The contract is fulfilled by a domestic contractor (Grupa WB / WB Electronics S.A.), with the UAV designed in Gliwice, strengthening Poland's unmanned systems industry.

Independence is counted the same way the gate that admits a record counts it: subdomains and titles from one publisher are a single voice, Wikipedia is zero. That is why the number is lower than the number of links. Three is the minimum.
