Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace will deliver counter-uncrewed aerial systems to Ukraine as part of a $110 million contract with the International Fund for Ukraine.

The Norway-headquartered defence company will deliver several Cortex Typhon anti-drone systems, Dingo 2 all-protected vehicles, Kongsberg remote weapon systems, and weapons to the country.

The Cortex Typhon C-UAS is based on field-proven software and hardware from Teledyne Flir and Kongsberg, including surveillance system and Kongsberg Remote Weapon Station and Cortex Integrated Combat Solution.

“This contract will provide a significant capability boost for the Armed Forces of Ukraine and will support their ability to protect their people and defend their country against aerial threats,” according to Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace president Eirik Lie.

The International Fund for Ukraine was established by the UK, Norway, and international partners to identify and procure critical capabilities and deliver them quickly to Ukraine.
