1. We contacted Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace (KDA) on May
12 to follow up on reftel request. Kongsberg Procurement
Coordinator Kjersti Jacobsen confirms its End User Statement
and verified that the quantities and types of explosive bolts
are correct in the referenced request. The bolts are to be
used for development testing on the Norwegian Naval Strike
Missile (NSM) for which Kongsberg have a development contract
with the Norwegian Navy. In conjunction with NSM testing and
qualification, the bolts are to be used in the NSM separation
mechanism and booster separation. Ms. Jacobsen indicated
that Kongsberg predicts that all of the bolts will be used
during the NSM development period and that Kongsberg will in
future need to order more bolts for serial production of the
NSM.
2. Post will be pleased to further contact Kongsberg as
necessary, but has no adverse information regarding the
statements provided by Kongsberg on the End User Statement
described in reftel.
