Rheinmetall TG3 MIL trucks for Norway
Norway will be taking delivery of almost 300 advanced TG3 MIL 8x8 military trucks, worth over €150 million, from Rheinmetall.
The contract was signed on 31 May 2023 in Oslo.
In terms of volume, it is the largest single call-off of trucks to date under the framework contract concluded between Rheinmetall, Norway and Sweden. Earmarked for the Norwegian armed forces, the package encompasses multiple vehicle variants, including hook loader trucks, special vehicles with crane and hook loader systems as well as trailers and flatracks.
The primary purpose of the vehicles will be to enhance the transport capacity and operational capabilities of the Norwegian military. The latest call-off represents less than half of the necessary logistic vehicles covered by the framework contract, meaning that follow-up orders from Norway and other Scandinavian nations are likely.
