KIELCE — Polish defense firm WB Group this week unveiled its newest UAV, a jet-powered strike drone that it’s calling Warmate 30.
According to WB Group, “the Warmate 30 is classified as a loitering munition system designed to detect and engage high-value, time-sensitive targets at long range, with ability to [fully integrate] with the Gladius reconnaissance-strike system and the Topaz command system ensures continuous data exchange between platforms during real-time combat operations.”
Gladius is a WB Group-developed system designed to be used in battery formations and “include various types of unmanned aerial vehicles launched from [ground] vehicles equipped with a universal launcher” or a towed launcher.
According to data publicly released this June by Lt. Gen. Sławomir Owczarek, First Deputy General Commander of the Armed Forces, four Gladius battery-level fire modules have been delivered to the Polish Army. This May WB Group signed a contract with the Poland’s MND Armament Agency for 12 additional battery-level fire modules for unmanned reconnaissance and strike systems, with the delivery of three modules in 2028, and six modules in 2029.
