The Norwegian government has agreed to purchase six new maritime helicopters made by Sikorsky for over $1 billion.
The first delivery will be in place as early as 2025.
Sikorsky officials released a statement saying in part that it was honored to have been chosen to make the helicopters for Norway.
The American MH-60R Seahawk maritime helicopter will initially be used by the Norwegian Coast Guard, but they will also be prepared for equipment for anti-submarine operations.
