Poland has formally accepted its first batch of 15 Borsuk IFVs, a major advancement in the country’s effort to update its mechanized forces.
These vehicles are the initial installments of a 111-unit order, part of a 6.57-billion Polish zloty ($1.8 billion) agreement covering production and delivery through 2029.
Designed by PGZ and Huta Stalowa Wola, the amphibious, tracked Borsuk is built to carry infantry into battle while providing protection against small arms, anti-armor weapons, and IEDs.
In addition to frontline deployment, the program includes comprehensive training and logistics packages, with plans underway for specialized versions such as command and chemical defense variants.
With strong firepower, high mobility, and amphibious capability, the Borsuk is intended to replace outdated IFVs and strengthen operational posture along Poland’s eastern border.
Its design mirrors global advancements in IFVs that emphasize modularity, resilience, and seamless integration with digital battlefield networks.
Thanks to its amphibious configuration, the Borsuk can cross rivers and navigate challenging landscapes without external support, enhancing maneuverability in varied conflict environments.
Its weapons suite features a 30mm Mk.44S Bushmaster, a twin Spike anti-tank missile launcher, and a 7.62mm UKM-2000C machine gun, all controlled via the ZSSW-30 remote turret.
The advanced turret enables precise target engagement at multiple distances, while the Spike launcher delivers strong anti-armor performance.
