Luxembourg Places Order for Protector Weapon Control Systems

Released on Monday, January 21, 2008

Luxembourg has placed an order with KONGSBERG for the Protector weapon control system. The order is valued at approx. MNOK 68.

Contracts have also been signed with Portugal, the Czech Republic and Norway. The Norwegian Army has ordered Protector Lite systems for deployment on the new Iveco LMV armoured personnel carriers. These latter three contracts add up to a total of roughly MNOK 34.

The Protector weapon control system protects military troops by allowing the vehicle's weapons to be operated from a protected position inside the vehicle.
