Kitron Selected as Main Electronics Supplier for KONGSBERG's Weapon Station System
November 7, 2022 | KitronEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Kitron has entered into a long-term production agreement with an expected value of NOK 750 million with Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace AS for electronic modules that are part of KONGSBERG’s remote weapon station system (RWS).
“This is a significant agreement for Kitron. It both extends and expands our strong collaboration with KONGSBERG,” says Peter Nilsson, CEO of Kitron.
On Monday, 31 October, KONGSBERG announced a new 5-year framework agreement with the U.S. Army for its version of the Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS).
For Kitron's production facilities in the USA and Norway, the CROWS program is expected to generate annual revenues of NOK 150 million over the next five years. The volume will depend on demand and the annual budget process in the US and may therefore be either lower or higher.
In total, KONGSBERG has delivered more than 18,000 weapon station systems across all defence branches to the US military. The system is intended to provide protection and a better decision-making basis for soldiers or operators.

Beyond the Board: Why More Defense Primes Are Moving Toward Rigid-flex for Lighter, More Reliable Systems
11/18/2025 | Jesse Vaughan -- Column: Beyond the BoardOver the past decade, the conversation around PCB innovation in aerospace and defense has often centered on high-density interconnects, advanced materials, and tighter design-to-fabrication collaboration. But the move toward rigid-flex is a quieter shift that has been gaining momentum, and it’s changing how primes and system integrators approach the physical architecture of mission-critical electronics.
