The lobster-A program. What can Polish manufacture gain?

In September 2023, MON signed a framework agreement to get [27 squadrons of American multi-guided M142 HIMARS rocket launchers (486 pieces)](https://defence24.pl/defence-policy/500-himars-for-military-Polish-contract-signed). Sets undergoing poloniumization (including the installation of an arms module on the chassis of the truck Jelcz 663.45 TS T61 and integration with ZZKO Topaz) are to be named lobster-A. The proportion of Polish contribution to the program remains the subject of talks with the producer, Lockheed Martin. The current negotiations concern the first executive agreement to get 126 launcher modules for lobster-A sets.
