Defense units have increased demands on secure communications and cyber security technologies. Hardware systems for land, air and sea evolve and gets smarter and more precise while being even more rugged. Our main centers of competence for defense applications and related compliance handling in line with your projects are concentrated to our ITAR team in USA and our Norway team for Europe. Here you can learn about export control and transfer of sensitive technical data for defense projects. Please see below for a selection of applications we serve.
