This latest contract isn't just about shipping hardware; it's about building it together. The deal is signed between the Polish Armament Agency and a consortium led by Hanwha WB Advanced System (HWB). HWB is a strategic joint venture between Hanwha and WB Group, Poland's largest defense firm. By localizing the production of guided missiles, both nations aim to secure a resilient supply chain in Europe.
High-ranking officials, including South Korea's Deputy National Security Adviser Kim Hyun-jong and Polish Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz, are attending the ceremony in Warsaw. This highlights the political weight of the agreement as Poland continues to modernize its military amid regional tensions.

| 1st Stage | 2022 | 5.03 trillion |
| 2nd Stage | 2024 | 2.2 trillion |
