The US State Department has approved a possible $2.6 billion sale of HH-60W helicopters and related equipment to Norway, the Pentagon announced on Friday.
According to the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA), the proposed deal would enhance Norway’s combat and special operations capabilities and strengthen its role in defending NATO allies.
The primary contractor for the deal is Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, based in Stratford, Connecticut.
The DSCA said it delivered the required congressional notification of the potential sale on Friday.
