Hanwha and WB Group Launch Polish Venture to Produce Chunmoo Rockets

The majority-owned venture brings CGR-080 rocket production to Poland through a phased technology transfer targeting full-scale output by late 2028.

Overview

  • The new company will be owned 51% by Hanwha Aerospace and 49% by Poland’s WB Group and will manufacture CGR-080 precision rockets, with roughly 80-kilometer range, for the Homar-K launcher.
  • A new factory will assume production through staged technology transfer supported by quality assurance and workforce training, with serial output expected to ramp by the end of 2028.
  • Hanwha says the rockets will primarily supply Poland, with potential sales to other European customers to be pursued in consultation with WB Group.
  • The agreement is Hanwha Aerospace’s first joint venture with a major Polish defense firm, a step Polish Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz called a milestone for domestic missile production.
  • The deal was announced at MSPO 2025 in Kielce, where Hanwha also showcased a broader portfolio and signaled ongoing bids in Poland, including interest in the Orka submarine program.
