American missile technology is fused with Norwegian command and control systems in the Norwegian Advanced Surface-to- Air Missile System (NASAMS). Modified AIM-120 AMRAAM missiles are used in this medium-range air defence system to offer outstanding capability against aircraft, cruise missiles, and unmanned aerial vehicles. With launchers and sensors spaced km apart, NASAMS's networked design permits scattered operations. Although the system's proven battle record has drawn many overseas clients, its modular design allows simple modifications and incorporation of new capabilities.
