Norway requested a possible sale of 60 AIM-120 C-7 Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAM) and four AMRAAM guidance section spares. Also included are missile containers, weapon system support, support equipment, spare and repair parts, and other related elements of logistics and program support.
"This sale will enhance the Royal Norwegian Air Force’s ability to defend Norway against future threats and contribute to current and future NATO operations. This is a follow-on buy of additional AIM-120 C-7 missiles," the DSCA added. |
