Boeing and Polish Firms Sign Deals to Build Domestic Apache Sustainment Hub

Overview

• Boeing, WZL‑1 and WCBKT formalized offset implementation agreements at WZL‑1’s Łódź facility that commit the parties to long‑term industrial cooperation on AH‑64E sustainment.
• Under the pacts WZL‑1 will perform organizational‑ and intermediate‑level maintenance plus selected depot‑level component repairs for Poland’s Apache fleet with Boeing supplying technical support and training.
• Boeing and WCBKT will begin technical evaluations of Polish ground support equipment to determine which domestic systems can be integrated into Apache operations; that assessment is an active, developing element of the program.
• The deals include workforce development and infrastructure work to create large‑scale Apache maintenance capacity in Poland, a step that will create skilled jobs and expand local technical expertise.
• The program turns Poland’s 96‑aircraft AH‑64E procurement into a domestic sustainment line that reduces reliance on foreign supply chains and positions Poland as a major Apache operator within European defence modernization.
