On 16 January 2018, Poland placed a new order with Leonardo for four additional M346 Master Advanced Jet Trainers. The new order must be completed by 2020. When completed, Poland will have 12 Masters, locally named “Bielik”, on strength.

Poland promptly added an option for four more M346s to this order. If this option is capitalized, their delivery schedule is planned for 2021/2022.

The Polish Bieliks are assigned to Dêblin air base with 41.Baza Lotnictwa Szkolnego im. mjr pil. Eugeniusza Horbaczewskiego (41.BLSz).
