Poland needs to eventually buy 200 new helicopters to replace its currently used ageing Soviet-made Mil Mi-8/17, Mi-14, and Mi-24 and US Kaman SH-2G helicopters, according to the Polish minister of defence Tomasz Siemoniak and representatives of the Polish General Staff.

On 21 April Poland decided to order 50 Airbus Helicopters H225 Caracal helicopters, principally in specialised variants such as combat search-and-rescue (CSAR) and anti-submarine warfare (ASW).

"Poland is planning to replace 200 helicopters over the next couple years," Siemoniak said in an interview with Radio ZET. "It is open offer for any manufacturer, including those companies eliminated from first proceedings," Siemoniak added.
