We sold tanks, trucks, APCs, engineering vehicles, towed artillery, AA guns, radars, radios, minelying and medevec vehicles etc... Currently we have deals with Iraq, Egypt, some South American countries, Turkey and India.

I think it is sad to be proud over arms sales.

Only if you can afford its thirst, but true, it will go almost anywhere.

Why? Armies exist to defend national interests or exert them in an agressive way and they need hardware, its a good sign that polish arms industry is advanced and developed to a point where we export our juice to other countries.

I agree. Especially, if one looks at some of the countries to which they are sold. Most of them have current military conflicts or a dictatorial regime. On the other hand, it is nice when a state develops its own weapons for the purposes of defense or counter-attack.
