Rheinmetall has signed a framework agreement with the Norwegian Defence Material Agency/NDMA for the modernization of the multi-sensor platform MSP500 system (multi-sensor platform).
The total value of the order is in the low double-digit million euro range. The framework agreement covers the replacement of the old MSP500 system delivered in 2002 and the associated simulators with the more powerful MSP600digital sensor system. The new systems will be installed from summer 2025. The multi-sensor platforms to be modernized are part of the Norwegian National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System (NASAMS) air defence system. They are integrated into the NASAMS batteries. The MSP600digital is the obsolescence-adjusted and performance-enhanced, HD-capable and fully digital further development of the MSP500 and MSP600 sensor platforms currently in use worldwide. The MSP600 digital system is based on the MSP600 system used by many navies, coast guards and other military and civilian users. The four-axis stabilized platform controls an electro-optical sensor package that includes a state-of-the-art thermal imager (day/night vision), a precision laser rangefinder and a high-resolution HD color daylight camera.
