None of the other commercial bidders could deliver a comparable range, Norway said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">European countries are looking to add long-range strike in a recognition that taking out enemy launch capabilities will be required to protect civilians and troops against the kind of massed drone and missile strikes Russia has used in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Denmark said in September it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2025\/09\/18\/denmark-to-field-long-range-strike-weapons-in-bid-to-deter-attacks\/\" rel=\"\">needed deep-strike capabilities<\/a> for deterrence, Germany in July <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2025\/07\/16\/germany-requests-us-long-range-weapons-as-bridge-to-european-tech\/\" rel=\"\">inquired<\/a> after the U.S. Typhon missile-launcher system, while France plans to test a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2025\/04\/10\/france-plans-to-test-homemade-himars-alternative-by-mid-2026\/\" rel=\"\">domestic HIMARS alternative<\/a> by the middle of this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe government\u2019s priority is to rapidly strengthen Norway\u2019s defense capabilities, and this acquisition will strengthen our ability to credibly deter potential adversaries,\u201d Minister of Defence Tore O. Sandvik said in the statement. \u201cHanwha is the only supplier that meets all requirements for performance, delivery time, and cost framework.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Land-based long-range precision fire is a new capability for the Norwegian armed forces, and the investment is one of the largest ever made by the army, according to Sandvik, who said the choice was based on a competition held by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fma.no\/en\" rel=\"\">Norwegian Defence Material Agency<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poland is also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2024\/04\/25\/poland-to-spend-29-billion-on-missile-equipment-from-south-korea-us\/\" rel=\"\">buying the Chunmoo system<\/a> and has signed a contract with Hanwha for local missile production, which will strengthen security of supply for European users, Norway said. Hanwha now plans to supply all European customers of the system, including Norway, with missiles produced in Poland, the government said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hanwha will deliver launchers in 2028 and 2029, allowing the armed forces to start training personnel, and will deliver missiles in 2030 and 2031, for an operational system within four years, Norway said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The South Korean defense firm has offered industrial cooperation agreements with Norwegian companies corresponding to 120% of the contract value, the government said. Norway\u2019s Kongsberg is one of Europe\u2019s largest producers of missile systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Europe would need more than three years to build up sufficient long-range strike capabilities as part of a range of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2025\/02\/25\/mind-the-gaps-europes-to-do-list-for-defense-without-the-us\/\" rel=\"\">critical enablers required to deter Russia<\/a> without the United States, according to a majority of security researchers and experts surveyed by Defense News in February 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Norwegian competition for long-range strike announced in November 2024 included KNDS, Rheinmetall, Hanwha and Saab\/Boeing, with all bidders except the Saab\/Boeing combination submitting their offer by the March 2025 deadline, the government said. Norway had also considered the U.S. HIMARS from Lockheed Martin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">KNDS was excluded from the competition in June 2025, as the Defense Materiel Agency considered the French-German company didn\u2019t meet the requirements for delivering a full system, according to the government. The Ministry of Defence didn\u2019t consider reopening the competition, as that would have entailed a \u201csignificant risk\u201d of higher costs and delayed delivery, Norway said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hanwha\u2019s Chunmoo was the only bid that met all the requirements in the competition, and the armed forces considered that the South Korean system could be delivered faster and more cheaply than the alternatives, the government said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>None of the other commercial bidders could deliver a comparable range, Norway
