NASAMS air defence system provides critical protection against attacks from aircraft, drones, and missiles. Since the autumn of 2022, NASAMS has been delivered to and deployed by Ukraine.
Around 900 missiles and drones have been intercepted by NASAMS, achieving a hit rate of 94%, according to Colonel Per Steinar Trøite, Head of the Norwegian Air Force’s support for Ukraine, in an interview with Aftenposten.
Today, the air defence system demand from Norway’s allies and partners is at an all-time high.
“The NASAMS air defence system protects the civilian population in Ukraine from Russian attacks every single day. It is the preferred air defence system used by numerous Western nations. This highlights the importance of close defence cooperation between countries and how it contributes to safeguarding peace, stability, and national sovereignty in Europe,” says Eirik Lie, President of Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace.
