Marshall Aerospace and Defence Group has been selected by Kongsberg to provide container systems to house the Fire Distribution Centre (FDC) for one of its key customers.

KONSGBERG will supply the National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System (NASAMS) and has selected Marshall to manufacture and provide its modular, reconfigurable containers following a competitive tender.

Marshall say its container systems provide operators with a comfortable and protected working area even when deployed in extreme environments and can be rapidly reconfigured to suit changing deployment needs.

Marshall ADG CEO, Alistair McPhee, said:

“We are delighted to have been selected by KONGSBERG to support their customer with this dynamic solution. We hope this will be the beginning of a long and productive relationship, as KONGSBERG continues to achieve further success with NASAMS in its key markets around the world.”
