Norway intends to buy 52 F-35 fighter.

As explained by representatives of the Ministry of Defense of Norway, the purchase of fighters F-35 Is connected mainly with the implementation of regular flights of Russian combat aircraft near the borders of this state, which carries a potential threat, and given the morally obsolete air equipment, in the event of any conflict, this country simply will not be able to protect itself.

Information portal Avia.pro said that today a contract for the supply of combat fighters to Norway has not yet been signed, however, in the case of concluding an agreement before the end of the year, the first aircraft will be delivered to the air forces of the country in the early 2017 years. The provisional amount of the contract to date remains unknown, but experts believe that we are talking about several billion dollars, and such waste can cause serious problems of the country's budget.
