ScioTeq and Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace Sign LOI
ScioTeq and Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace Sign Letter of Intent for Belgian NASAMS Air Defence Acquisition
Kortrijk, Belgium- March 27, 2026 - With global defence resources under increasing strain, the need for a resilient and self-reliant European air defence architecture has never been more pressing. Rising to this challenge, ScioTeq is proud to announce the signing of a formal Letter of Intent (LOI) with Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace, cementing our shared commitment to the Belgian NASAMS air defence acquisition.
This agreement represents a major step forward in strengthening industrial cooperation between Belgium and Norway, and it ensures that Europe continues to build the capabilities required to secure its own airspace.
A 40-Year Foundation of Trust
While this LOI marks a significant new chapter, it is not the beginning of our partnership. ScioTeq and Kongsberg share a rich history of collaboration spanning more than 40 years. This long-standing relationship has been carefully built on a foundation of mutual trust, continuous innovation, and a shared dedication to operational excellence.
This latest agreement is a natural deepening of that bond, ensuring that the critical systems defending our skies are backed by decades of proven, battle-ready industrial partnership.
Signed in the Presence of Defence Leadership
The strategic weight of this agreement was underscored by the distinguished guests present at the signing. We were honoured to formalise this LOI in the presence of Belgian Minister of Defence Theo Francken and Chief of Defense Frederik Vansina, alongside key representatives from both the Belgian and Norwegian Armed Forces.
Their presence highlights a clear, unified message: trusted, cross-border industrial partnerships are essential to reinforcing Europeβs collective defence capabilities.
Delivering Critical Protection
As Belgium moves forward with its initiative to enhance national air defence, ScioTeq is ready to play an integral role in its success. We are proud to deliver the critical interfaces and advanced visualization technology that will support the NASAMS system.
By equipping these defence systems with our proven technology, ScioTeq is directly contributing to the protection of our national territory, critical infrastructure, European institutions, and most importantly, our citizens.
