Norway has decided to donate about 100 Mistral anti-aircraft missiles to Ukraine, according to Minister of Defense Bjørn Arild Gram.
Mistral is an air defense system developed by the European defense group MBDA. The equipment donated by Norway has been used on board deminers and corvettes.
– The Mistral air defense system is an effective weapon that has been used in the navy and can be of great benefit to Ukraine, says Bjørn Arild Gram.
Mistral is intended to be replaced, and the Norwegian donation to Ukraine will therefore not affect its own defense, according to the Ministry of Defense.
– But it is still a modern and effective weapon, Bjørn Arild Gram emphasizes and adds that other countries have donated similar weapon systems.
The weapons have already been sent away from Norway, the Ministry of Defense states.
