The Gluszec helicopters have been modernised with enhanced capabilities to perform missions that include troop transport, combat search and rescue (CSAR) and attack of moving / stationary targets and enemy troops.
The helicopter can transport ten fully equipped troops on folding seats in utility configuration with the troop commanding position equipped with an MFD.
The delivery is part of the contract signed by PZL-Swidnik and the Polish Ministry of Defence in 2006 for four in-service helicopters to be upgraded to the W-3PL standard.
The parties are also discussing a potential order to modernise and upgrade additional W-3 helicopters to the Gluszec standard.
