Kongsberg Gruppen

KONGSBERG has signed a contract for the delivery of further Joint Strike Missiles to the US Air Force. The contract has a value of about USD 100 million. Deliveries are expected to be completed by the end of June, 2030. The JSM is a 5th generation stealth air-to surface missile, which can be carried internally in the F-35A thus ensuring the aircraft’s low-signature capabilities. The JSM has been selected by Australia, Canada, Germany, Japan, Norway and the United States.

KONGSBERG and Oceaneering International, Inc. (OCEANEERING) today announced their selection by the U.S. Department of War’s Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) to support the Combat Autonomous Maritime Platform (CAMP) program, focused on the development of an Extra-Large Uncrewed Undersea Vehicle (XLUUV) for future U.S. Navy missions. The CAMP program accelerates the transition of mature commercial and defense technologies into operational naval capabilities.

In the second quarter, KONGSBERG delivered revenue growth of 31 per cent compared with the same period in 2025. Profitability development was strong, with EBIT increasing by 49 per cent, driven by higher volumes and solid project execution across the company. Performance was particularly supported by revenue growth from major air defence, counter-drone and missile programmes. Activity levels remained high across all three divisions.

KONGSBERG increased revenues by 31 per cent to NOK 10,389 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to the corresponding quarter last year. Profitability improved, driven by higher volumes and strong project execution across the company’s three divisions. Strong demand for KONGSBERG’s technology and solutions, combined with good progress in key projects, contributed to a strong second quarter.

At the NATO summit in Ankara, Belgium signed a cooperation agreement with the Netherlands to purchase modern, multi-layered air defense, that would include 10 NASAMS systems. “After twenty years without one, Belgium will rebuild its own powerful air defense capability with this joint purchase. This step is essential for the protection of our population and critical infrastructure,” said Belgium’s Defence Minister Theo Francken in a statement.

By choosing to participate in the 212CD programme, Canada will become an equal partner in an established submarine cooperation with Norway and Germany. The programme facilitates joint development, standardisation and long-term operational effect for allied nations.

KONGSBERG announced on 30 June a NOK 4.7 billion contract for the delivery of the Joint Strike Missile to an undisclosed customer. Canada has today announced that it is acquiring the JSM, making it the sixth customer to select the missile. By integrating the JSM into Canada’s next-generation fighter fleet, KONGSBERG will provide the Royal Canadian Air Force with a critical operational advantage. We are pleased to welcome Canada as the sixth country to select the JSM.

Christened on the island of Texel in early March, the 80-metre newbuild has been outfitted with a range of innovations including HiPAP acoustic positioning systems, EM304 and EM2040 multibeam echosounders, TOPAS sub-bottom profiling technology, advanced echosounders for water column observation, and Seapath inertial navigation systems.

The contract was awarded by DALO, the Danish Ministry of Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation, which is responsible for the procurement, supply, maintenance, development and decommissioning of materiel capabilities, IT and services for the Danish Armed Forces and the Danish Emergency Management Agency.
