Norwegian company Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace plans to produce missiles for NASAMS air defense systems in Ukraine, the company’s president, Eirik Lee, told Euractiv.
“We are currently establishing a company in Ukraine. We are in close talks with representatives of Ukrainian industry about creating a joint venture. The first priority is to increase missile production for our air defense system in Ukraine using Ukrainian technology,” Lee said.
According to him, the plan involves mass production of missiles and the possibility of establishing joint ventures with Ukraine within a few months.
“In the long term, when the war is over, Ukraine could become part of the supply chain for missiles for air defense systems. There is a lot of innovation happening in Ukraine right now, and we want to be part of it. It is important for us to be there,” he added.
