The first two FA-50 supersonic combat aircraft purchased by Poland from South Korea have arrived in Poland. "The light combat aircraft ordered from South Korea, which will replace post-Soviet equipment, will enhance the capabilities of the Air Force," said Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak.

Yeah, first 12 training FA 50 are in here, ready to go.
Next step is that upgraded 36 FA-50PL Block 20 that should be ready in 25-26.

Is this first batch trainer only? Do they have radar and AMRAAM?

I think they are only for training.
Those 36 FA-50 PL will have radar
will have sniper pods
and integrated AIM-120 AMRAAM

Black clouds are gaining over those 36 FA 50 PL.
Korean side said that intagrating FA 50 with AMRAAM is not possible in the next at least 3-4 years.
We'll see what will happen but MANY people are not happy about this situation.
