28 June 2023 at 21:23 The US approves the possible sale of bombs worth NOK 3.1 billion to Norway The US State Department has approved a potential sale of the ammunition “StormBreaker” to Norway for a total of NOK 3.1 billion. This is clear from a statement from the Pentagon on Wednesday evening. The bombs, which were previously called “Small Diameter Bomb II”, are produced by the arms manufacturer Raytheon. In addition to the bombs, there is talk of Norway buying related equipment. The ammunition is planned to be installed on the Norwegian Armed Forces’ F-35 aircraft. It first became known last summer that Norway wanted to buy the precision-guided munitions from the United States. (NTB)
