Product Synopsis
This report is the result of SDI's extensive market and company research covering the Norwegian defense industry, and provides detailed analysis of both historic
and forecast defense industry values including key growth stimulators, analysis of the leading companies in the industry, and key news.
Introduction and Landscape
Why was the report written?
The Future of the Norwegian Defense Industry - Market Attractiveness, Competitive Landscape, and Forecasts to 2019offers the reader an insight into the market
opportunities and entry strategies adopted by foreign original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to gain market share in the Norwegian defense industry.
What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
Norway's total defense expenditure stands at US$7 billion in 2014 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.50% over the forecast period, to reach US$9.1 billion
in 2019; this increase in defense expenditure can be attributed to the modernization and training programs that are expected to be executed during the forecast
period. Norwegian defense expenditure is further driven by participation in peacekeeping initiatives, the procurement of military aircraft such as the F-35 fighter
aircraft, the Norwegian All Weather Search and Rescue Helicopter (NAWSARH) program, Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAM), upgrade
and support for C-130J aircraft the soldier modernization program, cyber security and the procurement of advanced technology equipment. The country's defense
budget stands at 1.33% of GDP in 2014 and is expected to increase marginally to 1.42% of GDP by 2019. During 2010-2014, the average capital expenditure
allocation stood at 31.6% of the total defense budget, and this is expected to grow at the same average during the forecast period.

Key Market Issues
The Norwegian defense industry favors Scandinavian and European countries for defense trade, as it is a member of the European Defense Agency, which
limits the scope for foreign companies to enter the Norwegian defense industry. Furthermore, the country follows a strict offset policy, according to which,
offsets are mandatory for all transactions exceeding NOK50 million, and investors are required to reinvest 100% of the value of the contract into the Norwegian
economy. Moreover, if the investor is unable to meet the offset obligation, a penalty is issued of a minimum of 10% of the outstanding amount. Finally, the
relatively high cost of labor in the country may be an additional deterrent for potential investors. The Norwegian Government has adopted a new set of rules for
defense exports after the Iraq war massacre in 2012; these rules further tighten the export policy of Norway, affecting the country's budget deficit, and forbid
Norwegian exports to nations engaged in warfare. In addition, new laws also ban export to countries that are not part of the NATO agreement. The following
factors are listed in new laws adopted by the Norwegian defense industry, which determine where weapons can be exported: Attitudes to international human
rights instruments, and respect for humanitarian law; respect for civil and political rights Reports by competent organizations of serious violations of human
rights, including the use of torture or other inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment in the receiving state, or the arbitrary deprivation of liberty The risk
that the exported items could be used for the violation of basic human rights, e.g., using military equipment to crack down on peaceful demonstrations.
Key Highlights
The Norwegian MoD is in the process of modernizing its armed forces with advanced equipment; in 2010, the country passed a long term defense plan, which
was again revised in 2012. It outlined modernization plans, including the procurement of 48 F-35 fighter jets, additional funding for the home guard, advanced
training for the armed forces and home guard, and a special allocation for cyber security. Furthermore, in early 2013 the Norwegian Defence Logistics
Organization (NDLO) has contracted with Iveco Defense Vehicles for a tranche of 60 light armored vehicles and this procurement is expected to increase the
total fleet to 170 units. In 2012, the country finalized on modernizing its land forces and proposed to spend US$750 million to upgrade and manufacture 146
CV90 armored combat vehicles which will significantly enhance army's operational capabilities. The program is expected to complete in 2017 after adding 41
new CV90 armored fighting vehicles (AFVs) and upgrading 103 current CV90s. The prime contractors include BAE Systems manufacturing new vehicles and
Kongsberg Defence and Aerospace, who will supply the integrated data and information system, installation of weapon systems, sensors, communication and
security systems. The Norwegian government is increasing its efforts to strengthen its position on cyber security and has drafted a new National Cyber Defense
Strategy (NCDS) in this regard. The initiative will be run under the Ministry of Defense's (MoD's) jurisdiction with an objective to create a common situational
understanding of the cyber threat, secure information and communication systems, fortify the ability to detect, investigate and combat incidents. The Norwegian
Armed Forces have established the Norwegian Cyber Defence in September 2012 with 1500 force employee and the unit will be responsible for counter-cyber
warfare in Norway. Furthermore, cyber security is one of the main priorities in the 2014 defence budget and the National Security Authority has been sanctioned
an additional contribution of 20.2 million NOK in preserving national cyber security. Overall, defense imports decreased during the review period; however, due
to the modernization and procurement plans of the Norwegian MoD, Norwegian defense imports are expected to increase over the forecast period. European
countries such as France, Germany, Italy, and the UK are expected to remain the key suppliers during the forecast period. Norway was the world's
fifteenth-largest arms exporter during 2008-2012, with the country contributing a share of 0.6% of all global arms exports during the same period. During the
forecast period, the country's defense exports are expected to grow significantly as a result of expansion into Thailand, Singapore, and South Africa, in which,
demand for defense equipment is expected to be strong. Furthermore, new collaboration programs with foreign OEMs are also expected to drive Norwegian
defense exports over the forecast period.
