Hell it's about time !
Just found out that WP (Polish Army) is in fact creating a SOF aviation unit.
First selection proces is already underway.
They will be required to fly using instruments only and NOD - something that is very very new in Polish aviation, and something that the Night Stalkers are best at :huh?:
They will be part of the Air Force, but during an op. they will be taking orders from DOS (Spec. Ops. Command).
The plan is that the unit will be mission ready in two years time.
They have two types of helos:
W3 Sokół,
(the one on the photo is the same one that was in GROM when it had a aviation element in it's ranks - but not anymore)
and MI-8
Of course they will be replaced with more modern helos due to the National Helicopter Programe.
Well, this will be interesting
