Norway’s defense ministry looks to purchase five Boeing-developed (NYSE: BA) maritime patrol aircraft worth approximately $1.15 billion for the country’s armed forces.
The ministry said Friday it plans to acquire the P-8A Poseidon for efforts to monitor the country’s oceans and offer allied civil and military authorities with a basis for decisions with the use of new modern sensors and weapons.
The maritime patrol aircraft will replace the current fleet of six P-3 Orion and three DA-20 Jet Falcon units and the contract will also cover modern sensors, surveillance systems, anti submarine weapons and support systems.
