Poland Won't Receive First San Anti-Aircraft Guns in Time to Counter russian Drone Threat
Poland's San program was meant to be a fast, low-risk answer to the drone threat by mating proven components rather than developing new ones. That the first deliveries are slipping anyway is the more telling signal: integration, not invention, is where counter-UAS programs stall. For procurement professionals, this reinforces that schedule risk in short-range air defense sits in sensor-gun-fire-control fusion and certification, and that fielding timelines should be underwritten accordingly.
