PGZ Naval Shipyard

PGZ Naval Shipyard (PGZ Stocznia Wojenna) is a Polish naval shipyard based in Gdynia. According to its official website, the shipyard was established in 2017 by taking over the assets and traditions of the Naval Shipyard (Stocznia Marynarki Wojennej), and it is currently part of Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa, described by the company as one of the largest defence concerns in Central and Eastern Europe. The company states that acquiring an enterprise with nearly a century of cooperation with the Navy allows it to use specialized infrastructure, a location directly adjacent to the main naval base, and familiarity with naval cooperation practice. Its stated main goal is conducting projects for Poland's fundamental security interest. The official site highlights programs including Miecznik multi-purpose frigates for the Navy, the Ratownik maritime rescue project, Kormoran-type minehunters, an investment program, repairs and modernizations, new military construction, an electronics and armament center, and a chemical laboratory. It also reports 2026 milestones for the first Miecznik frigate, Wicher, including a naming ceremony, roll-out, and planned launching in August 2026 at the shipyard in Gdynia.
