The radar will be designed and developed by Raytheon in the United States, with key radar subassemblies co-developed by KONGSBERG in Norway.
"Continuous improvements from both KONGSBERG and Raytheon are among the key factors behind the NASAMS success story," said Eirik Lie, president of Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace.
"With the new GhostEye radar, the NASAMS system capabilities are expanded to maintain its superior performance and flexibility. The NASAMS Air Defence System is strategically important for Norway's defence capabilities and crucial for safeguarding national security interests," said Rolf Kjos, National Armaments Director at the Royal Norwegian Ministry of Defence. "It has also proven to be crucial for safeguarding Ukraine against air threats." 
GhostEye is a 360-degree surveillance and fire control sensor, specifically tailored for maximum transportability and rapid deployment across challenging terrain. The radar detects, tracks, and identifies a variety of airborne threats, including cruise missiles, drones, and fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft.
GhostEye paves the way to further enhance and grow the capabilities of NASAMS to remain the world's leading medium-range air defence system.
"GhostEye can be mounted on various vehicles, making it suitable for any operational environment," said Tom Laliberty, president of Land and Air Defense Systems at Raytheon. "Coupled with a combat-proven air defence system like NASAMS, this new sensor will help Norway and other allied nations defend against sophisticated and evolving aerial threats."
