Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace ('KONGSBERG') has signed a contract for the
delivery of ORCCA® combat system elements to four 212CD submarines for the
German Navy and two for Norway.
The contract has a total value of NOK 3.5 billion.
Earlier in December 2025, the Norwegian government announced plans to acquire
two more 212CD submarines, in addition to the four that have already been
ordered. The proposal is awaiting formal approval by the Norwegian parliament
(Stortinget).
"Following these orders, Norway and Germany will together operate a fleet of 12
modern submarines equipped with the industry's most advanced combat system.
Submarines are an important strategic capability, helping to deter potential
adversaries and strengthen the defense of national interests," said Eirik Lie,
President of Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace.
KONGSBERG signed the contract with kta naval systems, which was established to
develop combat systems for non-nuclear submarines, and to develop, produce and
maintain combat systems for submarines from TKMS. Kta naval systems is a joint
venture between TKMS, its Naval Electronic Systems business unit (ATLAS
ELEKTRONIK) and Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace.
