- The flight began at 10:03 a.m. Pacific time and reached a maximum altitude of 41,000 feet.
- The aircraft is then to move to the Installation and Checkout facility, where mission systems will be installed and further testing will take place before final delivery to the Norwegian Defence Materiel Agency later in 2021.
- The five P-8As are to replace Norway’s existing fleet of six P-3 Orions and three DA-20 Jet Falcons, while flight operations are to move from Andoya Air Station to new facilities at Evenes Air Station.
- By that point, Boeing had delivered 136 P-8 aircraft to the U.S. Navy, the Royal Australian Air Force, the Indian Navy and the United Kingdom’s Royal Air Force, while Norway was among eight nations that had selected the P-8A.
The P-8 is a capability that will help Norway improve anti-submarine warfare, anti-surface warfare, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, and search-and-rescue missions, in addition to fostering valuable regional collaboration and interoperability with NATO nations.— Christian Thomsen, P-8 Europe programme manager, on the maiden flight of Norway's P-8A Poseidon
