Norway has bought a record batch of F-35 missiles

The AMRAAM-D is an upgraded version of the missiles previously used by both the F-16 fighter and the NASAMS air defense system.

Norway has signed the largest agreement with the United States for the acquisition of AMRAAM-D air-to-air missiles for the F-35 fighter jet, worth NOK 5 billion (approximately $500 million). This was announced by Norway’s Ministry of Defense on Tuesday, November 15.

“This is a very important step both for enhancing Norway’s defense capabilities and for Norwegian-American cooperation,” said Norwegian Defense Minister Bjorn Arild Gram.

He noted that achieving such agreements is very important in the current unstable security situation.

The agency informs that the missiles will be transferred to the kingdom until 2028 inclusive. In addition to the United States, such missiles are in service only in Canada, Great Britain and Australia.

The AMRAAM-D is an upgraded version of the missiles previously used by both the F-16 fighter and the NASAMS air defense system. With a more powerful engine, improved control systems and data link, this missile will give Norwegian warplanes more capability to deal with modern air threats.

It was previously reported that Norway sold 32 F-16 fighter jets to Romania for 388 million euros. The deal also includes logistical support and additional packages of equipment and services provided by the US.
