Kitron receives communications order from Kongsberg

Kitron receives communications order from Kongsberg

(2016-05-12) Kitron has received a NOK 37 million order from Kongsberg Defence &

Aerospace AS for military communications equipment.

The equipment to be supplied is related to an existing contract for deliveries

to Hungary.

Kitron will supply various communications products, and production will be done

by Kitron in Arendal. The contract has a value for Kitron of NOK 37 million, and

deliveries will take place in 2016 and 2017.

Harald Ånnestad, President of Kongsberg Defence Systems, said:

"We are very satisfied once again to be able to award a major order to Kitron.

The last twelve months we have placed orders totaling 157 MNOK to Kitron for

advanced tactical communications equipment. This shows the importance of the

Defence portfolio to maintain highly advanced electronics production in Norway.

The recent contract with the NATO member Hungary is an excellent example of how

the Norwegian tactical communications cluster is able to compete and win defence

orders in the face of tough international competition."
