The IBCS will be delivered under the Wisla program. The project involves the purchase of medium-range air and missile defense systems. At the first stage Poland will get two divisions of Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems.
As part of the second phase of the Wisla program, Poland will buy five more Patriot divisions. Thus, in total, Poland will receive 10 batteries of air defense missile systems by 2028.
