Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace (KONGSBERG) has been awarded a $70 million firm-fixed-price modification to a previously awarded contract for the Joint Strike Missile, according to a statement by the US Department of Defense.
The modification brings the total cumulative face value of the contract to $208 million. Work will be performed at Kongsberg, Norway, and is expected to be completed in 2027.
“We are pleased to welcome the US Air Force to the JSM user group and look forward to continue to support US defence capabilities with strike missiles from KONGSBERG,” said Eirik Lie, President of Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace.
In June 2024, KONGSBERG signed an Undefinitised Contract Action (UCA) with USAF for the delivery of JSM.
