The Australian Government is investing to procure up to 14 multi-mission phased array radars (MMPARs) for the Australian Army…
KONGSBERG’s first Australian manufactured launcher for the NSM capability has successfully completed a Blast Test Vehicle.
Two systems are being considered to fulfil the requirement: Lockheed Martin’s M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) firing the Precision Strike Missile Increment 2
Kongsberg has signed a multi-year procurement contract for the delivery of Naval Strike Missile (NSM) to the U.S. Navy and USMC.
Australia wants land-based anti-ship missiles to enhance its long-range defences. The government is yet to issue a formal tender for this requirement, but contenders are already lining up to meet the need.
Kongsberg Defence and Aerospace is building a state-of-the-art missile production facility in the United States to meet global demand, following expansion in Norway and the recently announced missile factory in Australia.
Kongsberg recently provided training for the Royal Australian Navy on how to load Naval Strike Missiles (NSM) onto its Anzac-class frigates…
The Albanese Government will contribute up to $850 million in partnership with Kongsberg Defence Australia to manufacture and service missiles at Williamtown near Newcastle.
“NSM represents the fastest introduction into service of long range missile capability in our Navy today,” Vice Admiral Hammond said.
HMAS Sydney has fired the Royal Australian Navy’s first Naval Strike Missile during a SINKEX as a part of Exercise RIMPAC 2024.
