The U.S. Navy recently awarded Kongsberg Defence and Aerospace an approximate $900 million contract for its Naval Strike Missile (NSM) anti-ship missiles.

 

The five-year contract includes options that could increase its total value to approximately $1.08 billion.

 

The NSM is an anti-ship missile developed by Kongsberg, first deployed by the Norwegian Navy in 2012, and has been selected by multiple countries, including the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps.

 

The contract is the largest missile contract in Kongsberg's history.

 

Additionally, Kongsberg announced plans to establish a new missile production facility in James City County, Virginia, to support the increased demand for the NSM and Joint Strike Missile (JSM).
