Defence company Thales and PIT RADWAR, a PGZ Group company and a supplier of military equipment for the Polish Armed Forces, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) aimed at exploring and undertaking common technical, technological and business activities to address a broad range of radar technologies.

The agreement was signed at the MSPO International Defence Industry Exhibition in Kielce, Poland, in September 2024.

According to Thales, joining capabilities will enable both companies to multiply their strengths, offering “superior” performance parameters and “unique” features for clients in both domestic and international markets.

To note, the parties share decades of experience in radars and radiolocation technologies, including in implementation for both military and civil clients.

Thales is involved in advanced technologies within three domains: Defence & Security, Aeronautics & Space and Digital Identity & Security.

PIT-RADWAR has conducted research and development activities in the field of radar technology, electronic support and measures, C2 systems and related armament systems, especially air defence systems.
