Kongsberg subcontracts Marvin for F-35 work
Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace has signed a NOK162 million ($17.82 million) contract with Marvin Engineering for the supply of air-to-air pylons for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter programme.
The agreement covers production lot 13 for all variants of the fighter, and follows a 6 August announcement that Marvin had been awarded a NOK113 million contract award for lot 12 work.
‘This contract is yet another testimony of Kongsberg’s capabilities as a key supplier to the F-35 programme,’ Eirik Lie, president of Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace, said.
‘The contract allows us to continue our long-standing relationship with Marvin Engineering, providing continued production of the pylon through 2020 in Kongsberg’s facilities.’
