Polish Ministry of National Defense decided to purchase the J-MUSIC DIRCM system from Elbit Systems to protect the government’s Boeing 737NG fleet from the threat of man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADS).

According to Defence24, the scope of the deal and the number of systems acquired were not disclosed.

Work will be conducted with the Polish company PCO SA. Last September, the two companies signed a cooperation agreement, including in the field of DIRCM solutions.

Elbit’s J-MUSIC will also be installed on several Israeli airliners, as well as on the new plane for the Israeli prime minister.
