Main battle tank
Leopard 2A8NO  Germany Main battle tank 54 on order In February 2023, the Norwegian prime minister, Jonas Gahr Stoere announced that Norway would be ordering 54 new Leopard 2A7 tanks from Krauss-Maffei Wegmann at a cost of kr 19.7 billion with a further option for 18 vehicles to be delivered at a later date. The first Leopard 2A7s are due to be delivered by 2026, and operational by 2031. The Norwegian government had been weighing up either the Leopard 2A7 or the South Korean K2 Black Panther as a replacement for its aging Leopard 2A4 fleet.[30][31][32][33] Due to alteraterations in the design it was deemed nesesary to re designate these to Leopard 2A8 NOR
Leopard 2A4NO  West Germany Main battle tank 52 in 2001;[34] 36 (8 more in storage) in 2024;[35]

8 will be donated to Ukraine.[36]
6 chassis reused for AVLB LEGUAN

52 Leopard 2A4NLs were acquired from the Netherlands in 2001. The tanks have been adapted to Norwegian requirements, which includes, among other things, the installation of new radios, weapon racks and a Battlefield Management System.[37]
Norway had been planning on upgrading 38 of the tanks to modern standards,[38] but this option was considered inadequate in the Ground Power Review,[39] and in the proposition that was published in October 2017, it's instead suggested that Norway should acquire brand new tanks after 2025. In October 2020 the Norwegian Defence Materiel Agency sent out a Request For Information for the main battle tank market.[40] Market analyses revealed the Leopard 2A7 and the K2 Black Panther as candidates for the procurement project. In January 2022 started winter trials of the candidates, undergoing extensive mobility and firing tests for evaluation with a contract to be signed by the end of the year and deliveries planned from 2025.[41]

Multiple launch rocket systems
M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System  United States Multiple launch rocket system 1 (mothballed) Taken out of active service in 2005, and have been sitting in storage since then. This was largely a result of Norway signing the Convention on Cluster Munitions, as well as not being able to afford to upgrade the system to fire M31 GMLRS at the time.[91]

In 2014, a decision was made to scrap the M270s, but it was halted before it could be carried out.[92][93] 3 donated to Ukraine via UK in June 2022[94] Another 8 donated in May 2023.[95]

Self-propelled gun
M109A3GN  United States Self-propelled gun 33 in storage (2023) 126 M109Gs were acquired from West Germany between 1969 and 1971. They were then upgraded to the M109A3GN configuration during the latter half of the 1980s. In 2006, there were still 56 M109A3GNs in the Army's inventory, meaning that at least 70 SPGs had been scrapped after the end of the Cold War.

14 M109A3GNs received additional upgrades in 2007, and were designated M109A3GNM. The upgrade includes, among other things, new intercom and new navigation and positioning systems. The M109A3GNMs were the only SPGs that remained in active service (12 with Brigade Nord's Artillery Battalion and 2 with the Norwegian Army Weapons School) with the remainder of the M109s having been put in storage by 2006.[96]

22+1 donated to Ukraine in 2022[97]
