Raytheon and Kongsberg Teaming Agreement for Naval Strike Missile

摘要

Raytheon and Kongsberg have entered a teaming agreement for the Naval Strike Missile (NSM) that will help the companies to offer offensive anti-surface warfare (OASuW) solutions to several governments interested in this warfare mission. This agreement is the second such partnership between the companies, which collaborated last year to develop the Joint Strike Missile, the air-launched version of the NSM, a joint statement said April 9. Raytheon Missile Systems president Dr Taylor Lawrence said: "Raytheon and Kongsberg have a proud history of consistent partnerships to produce and improve the world's most trusted weapon systems. "This agreement enables us to bring a complete suite of solutions to the warfighter for the critical OASuW mission. We are very pleased to be extending our teaming with Raytheon to also include the proven NSM," said Harald Annestad, Kongsberg Defence Systems president.
