Only two of the six Polish divisions are ready to fight Russia.

The article discusses the current readiness of Polish military divisions in case of a war with Russia. It states that out of six land divisions, only two—16th and 18th mechanized divisions—are considered ready to engage in combat within days, classified as 'tier 1' units. These divisions have not yet completed forming all new units. Two other newly formed divisions, the 1st Infantry Division of the Legions and the 8th Infantry Division of the Home Army, are still in the process of formation. The remaining two divisions, 11th and 12th, are older and structured differently, requiring up to 30 days to reach combat readiness. According to General Wiesław Kukuła, these are classified as 'tier 2' units. While the 11th Division is noted as the most important among Western divisions, there is no official documentation confirming this classification beyond Kukuła’s statement.
