Hanwha Aerospace and Poland’s WB Electronics, through their Hanwha WB Advanced System joint venture (JV), signed a contract with Poland’s Armaments Agency on 29 December to build a factory in Poland for CGR-080 guided rockets for Poland’s Homar-K multiple rocket launchers (MRLs).
The PLN14 billion (USD4 billion) contract is expected to see the factory deliver 10,000 domestically made CGR-080 rockets for Polonised Chunmoo (multicalibre) Homar-K MRLs, with deliveries starting in 2030, said Hanwha Aerospace on 30 December.
The facility will be located on 116 hectares of land near the local Polish Army Territorial Defence barracks in Gorzów Wielkopolski in Western Poland. Local authorities say the factory should be built by quarter two 2028. The construction costs are expected toreach PLN2 billion.
The factory is expected to deliver the guided rockets mounted in rocket pods (also manufactured locally), intended to ease logistics and loading.
Poland’s Minister of National Defence Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz said at the signing that the contract “fulfils our long-held ambition for production independence within the Homar-K programme”.
The current contract is the third under the Homar-K framework agreement. The first (worth USD3.55 billion in total) was signed on 4 November 2022 in Warsaw, for the delivery of 218 MRL modules and their integration onto Jelcz truck chassis, together with logistics and training packages, and ammunition stock comprising several tens of thousands of guided rockets with maximum ranges between 80 km (CGR-080) and 290 km (CTM-290).
