#Poland launched four military satellites: 1x ICEYE, 3x PIAST (plus one civilian SatRev) as part of the Transporter-15 #SpaceX mission using Falcon 9 rocket.

#ICEYE are well known SAR imaging satellites of generally civilian use that already supply valuable visual intelligence to Poland and #Ukraine https://www.iceye.com

Here’s more information about the strictly military satellites from the PIAST mission:

Development of the Polish ImAging SaTellites (PIAST) — a precursor to a Polish Earth observation nanosatellite constellation under the SZAFIR program. The project is carried out in cooperation with the Military University of Technology, the Space Research Centre of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Łukasiewicz Institute of Aviation, Creotech Instruments S.A., and PCO S.A. The aim is to create a dual-use satellite system for defense and government purposes, with key technologies developed and manufactured entirely in Poland.
