HSW receives orders under WISLA
PGZ Group’s Huta Stalowa Wola (HSW) has received a contract from Raytheon for deliveries for Poland's WISLA programme, the company announced on 25 October.
The contract includes the development of the initial programme management plan as well as the maturity plan, identifying risks in the implementation of the programme. It also covers part of costs already incurred by HSW related to the preparation of the offer for the integration and production of the Patriot M903 missile launcher.
As a part of the implementation of the first phase of the WISLA programme, an executive contract will be signed later in 2018 for the integration and production of 16 Patriot missile launchers.
