According to John Weeks
The Airborne Soldier (1982 copyright) Poland as of 1981 had two airborne battalions and a "modern, although small transport fleet" backed up by 100 or so transport helicopters.
WP Armed Forces weren't exactly an open book in the 1980's so your guess is as good as mine how accurate this was in 1981-Poland's airborne certainly evolved by the late Cold War and would have evolved even more in the Twilight War.
