"We would like to address this order to the domestic industry, because we think that there is a potential to build small unarmed drones in Poland," said Tomasz Siemoniak, the Deputy Prime Minister and the Minister of the Defense. Such a procedure is legal, because it cares for the national interest, Siemoniak explained. State-controlled Polish Armed Group (Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa) and WB Electronics are expected to bid for the unarmed drones contract.  The government will probably to turn to Thales UK  or Israeli Hermes  to supply the MALE drones.
