60 mm mortar ammunition from Grupa Niewiadów

Grupa Niewiadów has started the production of 60.7 mm mortar ammunition compliant with NATO standards, available in high-explosive fragmentation and thermobaric variants, which have been used by the Polish Armed Forces since 2010.

On Tuesday, February 25, 2025, Grupa Niewiadów announced on social media that it has started the production of 60.7 mm mortar ammunition compliant with NATO standards, available in high-explosive fragmentation and thermobaric variants, which have been used by the Polish Armed Forces since 2010.

The launch of production is the result of Grupa Niewiadów’s cooperation with Slovak partners VOP Nováky and ZVS Holding. The first batch of grenades, amounting to tens of thousands of units, will be delivered to a foreign customer in 2025.

The establishment of the 60.7 mm mortar grenade production line was made possible by Grupa Niewiadów’s significant investments in infrastructure modernization, as well as its long-standing collaboration with the Slovak industry, particularly in the development of research and development capabilities in artillery.

Grupa Niewiadów’s partnership with VOP Nováky and ZVS Holding serves as an example of Polish-Slovak industrial cooperation in the defense sector.

Grupa Niewiadów submits an application to the Ministry of State Assets

On Thursday, February 27, 2025, Zakłady Sprzętu Precyzyjnego Niewiadów, part of Grupa Niewiadów, submitted an application to the Ministry of State Assets for the acquisition of shares in ZSP Niewiadów.

The funds are expected to come from the Capital Investment Fund, with the goal of securing financing for investment processes in the company based in Niewiadów.

Grupa Niewiadów has undertaken efforts to secure a strategic investor in the form of the State Treasury. The company is in an advanced investment process aimed at launching the production of 155 mm large-caliber ammunition and other military equipment in Poland. The company has presented the required analyses confirming the economic feasibility of the investment (Construction of a 155 mm ammunition factory in Niewiadów).

The investment carried out by Grupa Niewiadów aligns with the policies of the Polish government and the Ministry of National Defense regarding the management of public assets, the protection of national security interests, and the enhancement of the domestic defense industry’s capacity for ammunition production. This marks a milestone for Grupa Niewiadów in its efforts to strengthen Poland’s security.
