WB Group’s Cooperation with Britain’s Applied AGI

The Embassy of the Republic of Poland in London organized an event showcasing the cooperation between WB Group and the UK’s Applied AGI, highlighting the synergy of Polish and British innovation in the field of defense technology.

On Friday, March 6, 2026, the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in London reported on social media that the previous day it had hosted an event showcasing the cooperation between WB Group and the British company Applied AGI, highlighting the synergy of Polish and British innovation in the field of defense technology.

The event was attended by representatives of WB Electronics (part of WB Group) and Applied AGI, the Embassy, the defense industry, and invited guests.

It featured the Warmate 5 heavy loitering munition system, which made its international debut on September 9–12 last year at DSEI 2025 (Defence & Security Equipment International), the London defense and security industry exhibition. According to information obtained at the time by the editorial team of the MILMAG portal, the system attracted interest from the British Armed Forces.

Warmate 5 is a loitering munition with enhanced capabilities for engaging targets, including heavily armored ones, at long ranges. The system’s main components are an unmanned platform equipped with an interchangeable warhead, a launcher, and a ground control station. It can be used to support units on the battlefield or as a precision asset for engaging targets at various ranges (approximately 100 km).

The Warmate 5 loitering munition is equipped with an interchangeable warhead weighing 5–10 kg. Depending on the mission, this may be a high-explosive fragmentation, thermobaric, or anti-armor warhead. Its long range, ability to independently identify and strike targets, and retransmission capability make it a flexible tool on the battlefield.

Warmate 5 can form part of larger reconnaissance-strike systems such as the Gladius system used by the Polish Armed Forces. Loitering munitions are distinguished by their rapid response time after detecting a potential target and their ability to strike at ranges beyond those of typical tube and rocket artillery. The Warmate 5 strike system can be used to engage armored vehicles and attack rear-area targets such as depots, fuel stations, or radar stations.

The British company Applied AGI develops practical machine learning and artificial intelligence applications for the defense sector. Its cooperation with WB Group is intended to focus on integrating AI with Polish unmanned technologies, with the aim of developing more advanced autonomous military systems. The event at the Embassy provided an opportunity to celebrate this cooperation and to underscore its importance for security and innovation.

UPDATE

WB Group press release:

We were proud to use this event at the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in London to announce our collaboration with Applied AGI Limited. Partnerships like this are essential as we continue to develop technologies that combine autonomy, resilience and operational effectiveness for the modern battlefield.

It was also a real privilege for us to host such a thoughtful and timely conversation at the Embassy. Bringing together leaders from across the defence and technology community, the discussion explored how uncrewed systems, AI and software driven capability are changing the way modern conflict is fought and how quickly our industry is adapting.

We were grateful to have such a strong panel and great contributors in the room. Thank you to Konrad Wojciechowski, Dr. Tom Girn, Adrian Monks and Steve Knight for sharing their insight, and to Sean Bell for guiding a lively and engaging discussion.

Thank you as well to everyone who joined us on the night. The conversation around AI, uncrewed systems and the future of defence innovation is only just getting started and it was fantastic to be able to host part of it in such a historic setting.
