MBDA, Poland’s PGZ to Develop CAMM-MR Missile Development

MBDA and PGZ have joined forces at MSPO 2023 to develop the CAMM-MR missile for advanced medium-range air defense.

The letter of intent between PGZ and MBDA follows on from the UK and Polish governments agreeing to progress development of a future common missile based on the Common Anti-air Modular Missile (CAMM) family as part of the UK–Poland 2030 strategic partnership.

The new CAMM-MR missile concept has been created under a contract from the Polish Ministry of National Defence, with the new missile intended to complement CAMM & CAMM-ER within the integrated air and missile defence (IAMD) capabilities of the MIECZNIK and PILICA+/NAREW/WISLA programmes.

Polish involvement in the future development of the CAMM family follows on from the successful UK-Italian co-operation that created CAMM-ER.

MBDA is currently working with PGZ to enhance Poland’s missile capabilities, including through the PILICA+, NAREW, MIECZNIK and OTTOKAR BRZOZA programmes backed by transfer of knowledge and technology from MBDA to Poland’s defence industry.
