Strategic Implications

This contribution may indicate Norway’s commitment to supporting Ukraine’s transition to Western airpower, while also highlighting the relevance of Soviet-era systems in modern military contexts. The inclusion of S-300 missiles stands out as an unusual contribution from a NATO country with no legacy use of the system.
