Kitron Secures EUR 42 Million Defense Aerospace Production Order
Kitron has received a EUR 42 million order in the defense and aerospace sector. The contract covers system production linked to layered defense architectures. Deliveries are scheduled for 2026 from European facilities.
Norway-based Kitron has been awarded a contract valued at EUR 42 million within the defense and aerospace segment, the company announced on April 9, 2026.
The agreement includes the production and supply of systems that will form part of a layered defense architecture. Manufacturing is set to take place at Kitron’s facilities in Europe, with deliveries planned throughout 2026.
The company indicated that the contract reflects ongoing cooperation with an established customer in the sector. According to company leadership, the award reinforces Kitron’s role as a supplier within defense and aerospace programs.
The new order contributes to the company’s expanding backlog in the defense and aerospace market, which has become an increasingly significant segment of its business. Kitron has previously outlined growth ambitions targeting revenues of approximately EUR 1.5 billion, as presented during its December 2025 capital markets update.
The contract aligns with broader trends across the European defense industrial base, where demand for integrated systems supporting air and missile defense architectures continues to rise.
