**“IBCS will become the centre of the Polish air defence program”, says Bill Lamb, global manager at Northrop Grumman. The strategy is implemented in the first phase of the mid-range air defence programme of the Vistula, and Polish sensors and effectors will be integrated in the preparation of the second phase of the Vistula programme and the Polish manufacture will have a key function in production. Northrop Grumman develops the capabilities of IBCS on behalf of the US Army, and the strategy attracts interest from NATO's European allies.**
