~I commend you for your honesty about being too lazy to do your own work. I suppose in a few years you'll be breaking into people's houses and stealing their stuff, selling dope to school kids or sucking off of me and my fellow taxpayers and collecting welfare because you'll be too lazy to get a job. That being the case, I'm going to help you with your career instead of with your homework. I won't give you these (tremendously easy to find) answers so you can flunk out and get started with whatever nothing you intend to do with the rest of your life.

Polish army used 7 TP polish tanks which were modernized
british Vickers tanks, they were comparable to german Pz III but they had only 132 of those tanks and some number of Renault, Vickers and light armoured vehicles. Polish main aircrafts were PZL 7 and PZL 11 fighter planes which were quite returnable but not so fast and modern as Messerschmidts and they were not bi-planes. Polish pilots were good trained so they shot about 160 german planes down using those slow planes. So it's not true that all polish aircraft was destroyed on the ground. They had also modern bombers PZL 37 Los but they couldn't be used in right way. In September 1939 Poland was attacked not only by Germans but also by Soviets (17.09 1939). Western allies which formally joined the war refused to attack Germany on conference in Abbeville, France (12.09.1939). It was so called Phony war. Poles had not enough forces to make serious demages to Germans obviously, but they fought on two fronts with those weapons as they had. The myth that they didn't do anythng to defend themselves is based on nazi propaganda from WWII and postwar comunist propaganda which wanted to depreciate prewar democratic Poland.

The main Polish infantry weapon was an 8mm Mauser, pretty close to the German standard model. Their tanks and aircraft don't much matter, as they were almost all destroyed in the 1 Sept 1939 surprise attack. Polish flyers who managed to break through mostly flew RAF bombers. After their homeland had been occupied by Hitler and his ally Stalin, many Poles somehow made their way to Britain, where they fought out the war. And got little thanks for it.

Poland did not have tanks, only mounted Calvary and they only had a limited number of aircraft, some of them were bi-planes.

The Germans on the other hand had Stuka bombers, modern fighter planes and Panzer tanks.

Needless to say the Polish air force was swept from the skies, and the Calvary was ground up into dog food.

The Polish had bi-planes mostly, against German modern aircraft they stood no chance and most of them were shot while on the ground. No real modern tank forces against the Germans, simply cars with maybe some armor or something like that.
