According to a contract signed by Rheinmetall and the Norwegian Defence Material Agency (NDMA), Rheinmetall will modernize Multi-Sensor Platforms for the Norwegian Air Force.

The Multi-Sensor Platforms planned to be modernized form part of the Norwegian Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System (NASAMS).

The net amount of the signed contract value was not specified. The contract covers the modernization of the MSP500 system supplied in 2002 with the new MSP600 digital sensor system. The development of the system is planned to begin in the summer of 2025.

The MSP600 digital system is based on the MSP600 system, which is in service with many navies, coast guard, and other military and civilian users. The four-axis stabilized platform controls a suite of electro-optical sensors consisting of a state-of-the-art thermal imager (day/night vision), a high-precision laser rangefinder and a high-resolution HD colour daylight camera.
