The Defense Security Cooperation Agency said Thursday the possible deal, which will have RTX (NYSE: RTX) as the principal contractor, covers the purchase of 100 Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles-Extended Range, or AMRAAM-ER, and 4 AMRAAM AIM-120C-8 guidance sections.
Under the potential acquisition, Norway will purchase non-MDE items including AMRAAM containers and support equipment, spare parts, consumables, accessories and repair and return support, weapons software and support equipment, classified software delivery and support, and transportation support.
The Scandinavian country also requested classified publications and technical documentation, training equipment and support, studies and surveys, U.S. government and contractor engineering, technical and logistics support services and other related elements of logistics and program support.
With the proposed deal, Norway aims to enhance its ability to defend against existing and future threats. The AMRAAM-ER, which will supplement and replace Air Intercept Missile 120B AMRAAMs, will be included in the Norwegian Advanced Surface to Air Missile System and utilized for ground-based air defense.
DSCA notified Congress of the potential deal Thursday.
