The offer was selected based on the best offer. The production of the MG-20 Assault Bridge involves a group of companies such as the Polish Armaments Group, the Research and Development Centre for Mechanical Equipment and Bumar-Labedy company. The Daglezja-G bridges were designed and produced by Gliwice Development Centre. They were originally integrated on a modified T-72 tank chassis, with extended series of wheels. It can be deployed on trucks but the Polish Army seeks to equip its Leopard 2 armoured formations with the new type of equipment. |
