Contamination with a combat agent as true

Military chemists will receive further imitations of FOST and RT contaminations, designed to simulate contamination with sarin, soman or sulfur ipyrite. The Agency of Armoury has signed with the Polish maker a contract to supply the army with respective 1000 imitations for over PLN 1.5 million. First deliveries – this year.

In April 2025, the military announced a tender for the transportation of 1630 FOST contamination mimicators, of which the guaranteed order is 1204 pieces and optional – no more than 426. The Armed Forces Agency besides ordered 2,500 RT contamination mimicators, of which an optional order applies to a maximum of 683 units. The only entity to tender was Chema of Olesina (Mazowieckie province). On December 18, AU signed a contract with her to acquisition contamination imitationrs. The deliveries to the 2nd Regional Logistics Base are to be carried out from 2026 to 2030.

FOST contamination mimics are products specially designed as chemical agents designed for the exercise of surface contamination. They mimic contamination in terms of external appearance, physicochemical properties, nature of behaviour on the contaminated surface, taking the form of drops and fumes of poisonous agents. FOST Imitators simulate presence phosphorous organic warfare agents (sarin, soman) by calling characteristic colour reactions in RW-44a indicator tubes intended, among others, for usage in the PCHR-54M chemical diagnosis apparatus. The RT mimics act analogously, but simulate the presence of sulphur iperit and produce characteristic colour reactions in RW-36 indicator tubes.

RECLAMA

Thanks to the ‘contaminants’ produced by imitationrs training soldiers to mimic war and crisis situationsIt becomes more realistic.

Military chemists already usage this kind of equipment. The erstwhile order for RT and FOST contamination mimicators (500 pieces each) was concluded with Chema by the MON Armed Forces Inspectorate (now the Armed Forces Agency) in October 2021. In fresh years, plants from Olesina have besides supplied the Polish army with exercise teardrop grenades CGŁ-1.
