WB Group enters Germany with Berlin subsidiary and acquisition of a Bavarian propulsion maker

Launch attended by deputy ministers from both countries

The ceremony was hosted by Piotr Wojciechowski, founder and president of WB Group. Guests included German deputy defence minister Nils Schmid, Polish deputy foreign minister Marcin Bosacki, head of the Polish Embassy in Germany Jan T. Tombiński, senior officers of the Polish Armed Forces and the Bundeswehr, members of the Bundestag and representatives of politics, business, diplomacy and the media.

- Our goal is to open a new chapter in German-Polish cooperation in the defence industry. Together we want to design, produce and create long-term value. Poland and Germany bear a special responsibility for Europe's security. As a company, we want to live up to that responsibility through investment, industrial partnerships and combat-proven technologies - said Piotr Wojciechowski, president of WB Group, during the ceremony.

More than a year of preparation for Berlin

WB Group regards Germany as a strategic market and a key partner in building a strong, technologically sovereign European defence industry. The Berlin move builds on the defence cooperation agreement signed by Poland and Germany in June, which is aimed at developing an industrial partnership between the two countries.

- Poland and Germany signed an agreement on defence cooperation in June, with the goal of building an industrial partnership. That is why we are here in Berlin. We worked on launching WB Germany for more than a year. We want to become a lasting part of the local industrial landscape and build partnerships with small and medium-sized companies as well as with the largest groups - said Piotr Wojciechowski.

Bavarian propulsion maker is the first acquisition

WB Group designs and manufactures combat-proven, multi-domain unmanned systems used by Poland, Ukraine, numerous NATO members and other countries. In Germany, it plans to develop modern defence platforms with local partners for European armed forces and critical infrastructure operators, including long-term cooperation with German companies and investors.

- Today I am proud to announce that we have acquired our first technology partner, a company producing propulsion systems based in Bavaria. We know that sovereignty is priceless, and in wartime the proximity of production plants is crucial to success on the battlefield - added Piotr Wojciechowski.

WB Germany will act as WB Group's main point of contact for German industrial partners, political institutions, the Bundeswehr, security and defence companies and research and development institutions. The subsidiary is led by Robert Czajkowski.

- The challenges facing European security demand greater pace, broader industrial cooperation, more innovation and the use of proven, ready-to-use state-of-the-art solutions. We are convinced that combining Polish experience with German industrial competence will significantly increase Europe's defence capabilities - said Robert Czajkowski, president of WB Germany.

Warmate scores 100 per cent hit rate in Bundeswehr trials

WB Group solutions were demonstrated during trials run by the Bundeswehr in September 2026. Warmate loitering munitions, part of WB Group's reconnaissance-strike systems, achieved a 100 per cent hit rate and proved resistant to electronic warfare.

- The partnerships already launched with leading German companies are to be expanded in the coming years. Particular emphasis will be placed on integrating light and heavy vehicles and unmanned ground systems with existing platforms, on local production and on new solutions for network-centric operations - added Robert Czajkowski.

Further acquisitions and new production capacity

WB Germany will focus on developing existing industrial partnerships, acquiring further innovative technology companies to expand the supply chain and building additional production capacity. WB Group sees its role as an industrial bridge between Poland and Germany and as a driver of closer integration of the two countries' defence industries.

The room for growth is considerable. Poland and Germany together account for more than a third of European Union defence spending, yet bilateral defence industry turnover amounts to only about 0.1 per cent of trade between the two countries. Polish officials have highlighted this imbalance in talks with their German counterparts.
