According to Polish media reports, modern anti-ship missiles NSM (Naval Strike Missile), developed by the Norwegian company Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace, from Polish warehouses can be transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

According to sources, negotiations between the two countries on the possible transfer of these coastal defense systems are already underway and are at an advanced stage. It is believed that the NSM will provide the APU with powerful capabilities to defeat both sea and ground targets at a range of about 200 km.

Other features of NSM missiles are low visibility, which makes it difficult for the enemy to detect it in advance, and the ability to make unpredictable maneuvers on the final section of the trajectory to overcome enemy air defense systems. The missile is also equipped with an infrared guidance system (IIR), which allows it not to issue a radio frequency warning and reduces vulnerability from enemy electronic warfare using radio frequency interference tactics.

According to sources, the transfer of weapons could be secured at the expense of the European Union, which, in turn, would allow Poland to replenish its stocks of anti-ship missiles NSM.

The Polish Navy's NSM missile launcher carries a locally made chassis

As you know, the Polish Navy currently has two sets of NSM systems in service as part of the coastal defense forces. Each consists of two batteries with three launchers carrying up to four missiles each, as well as auxiliary command and fire control equipment. In addition, there are command vehicles of batteries and squadrons, mobile communication centers and target detection and tracking radars.

The Polish Navy became the first operator of NSM anti-ship missiles to deploy a coastal defense option. Subsequently, similar systems were decided to be acquired by the US Marine Corps, the Romanian and Latvian Navies. The US and Norwegian Navies use NSM missiles in their ship launch variant.
