Pilica (SPAAGM)

The PSR-A Pilica is a Polish short-range anti-aircraft missile-artillery system designed to protect military installations and units. It integrates twin 23mm anti-aircraft autocannons with Grom or Piorun man-portable air-defense missiles.

Developed in the 2010s by a consortium led by Zakłady Mechaniczne "Tarnów", the Pilica system was created to modernize Poland's very short-range air defense capabilities and safeguard critical infrastructure like airfields. Following successful military trials, the system officially entered service with the Polish Armed Forces in December 2020. While it has not seen active combat, the system is deployed for domestic airspace security, a mission that gained heightened significance following the 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Today, the platform remains in active service and is being upgraded to the "Pilica+" configuration, which integrates advanced radar and CAMM missiles to counter modern drone threats.
