Niewiadów Polska Grupa Militarna is carrying out an investment project to build a factory for 155 mm artillery ammunition. Thanks to PLN 250 million raised from the Fidera fund, the company is expanding the facility and has already contracted for production lines. Their installation is scheduled for the third quarter, and production is set to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026. The plant’s target production capacity will be 180,000 rounds of ammunition per year, while this year it will reach 120,000 rounds.
The company’s dynamic operational growth and the approval of its prospectus by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) have paved the way for a change in its listing segment—the company’s debut on the Main Market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange has been scheduled for April 21, 2026.
Niewiadów Polska Grupa Militarna is steadily establishing itself as a leading private manufacturer of artillery ammunition, including 155 mm rounds, drawing on over 100 years of experience in weapons production and a clear strategy for expanding its manufacturing capacity. The Group has secured financing in the amount of PLN 250 million and has contracted for modern production lines, with delivery, installation, and commissioning scheduled for the third quarter of 2026. The investment includes a robotic factory in Niewiadów and its own testing and ballistic facilities, including a range equipped with, among other things, a 155 mm ballistic gun. Intensive construction and modernization work is currently underway, and the full-scale launch of serial production is planned for the fourth quarter of 2026. “The target capacity of the plant in Niewiadów will be 180,000 rounds of 155 mm ammunition per year, and this year it will be 120,000 rounds,” says Adam Januszko, CEO of Niewiadów Polska Grupa Militarna, in an interview with .
A key element of the expansion of 155 mm ammunition production capacity is cooperation with the Military Institute of Armament Technology (WITU), aimed at commercializing the technology developed in Poland for the production of this type of ammunition. This strategic approach will reduce future licensing obligations to external suppliers and represents a significant step toward building Poland’s long-term technological and manufacturing independence.
In the second week of April, the first successful field tests were conducted at the WITU testing range in Zielonka to examine the fragmentation of the projectile body of a 155-mm caliber shell manufactured by Polska Grupa Odlewnicza.
Niewiadów is expanding its production capabilities in close cooperation with Poland’s leading research institutions—including the aforementioned WITU, as well as through other projects with the Military Institute of Engineering Technology (WITI), the Air Force Technical Institute (ITWL), and the Military University of Technology (WAT). This collaboration strengthens the foundations of Polish military technology, serves as a catalyst for further development, and accelerates research and development processes.
These domestic capabilities are complemented by international partnerships with renowned industry players such as Northrop Grumman, KNDS, Rheinmetall, Explosia, Wescom, and VOP Nováky. These partnerships provide access to selected technologies and production standards. In this context, the Niewiadów Ammunition Ring project is also being developed, implemented in cooperation with KNDS, among others, while maintaining the strategic goal of maximizing domestic technological autonomy and readiness to fulfill orders and deliveries starting in the second half of 2026, following the completion of certification processes.
Favorable market conditions and the urgent need to build up stockpiles for the KRAB and K9A1 systems are driving record demand for this type of weaponry. The investment in a 155 mm ammunition factory will strengthen the sovereignty of supplies of this strategic caliber for the Polish Armed Forces, based on Polish technology, while aligning with key national and allied security priorities. On March 30, the Polish Financial Supervision Authority approved the prospectus of Niewiadów Polska Grupa Militarna, paving the way for the company’s transition from the NewConnect market to the Main Market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The debut, scheduled for April 21 of this year, will be a significant milestone in the Group’s history and a catalyst for its continued dynamic growth,” concludes Adam Januszko, President of the Management Board of Niewiadów Polska Grupa Militarna.
