Belgrade: A Serbian factory bombed by NATO in 1999 is to make arms for US weapons manufacturer Remington in a contract worth 3.2 million dollars (2.6 million euros), a report said Tuesday.
Zastava Arms of Serbia and Remington signed the agreement in Kragujevac, 120 kilometers (72 miles) west of Belgrade, for the supply of the weapons in 2006, the private Beta news agency reported.
The arms would be sold under the joint brand name "Remington-Zastava" in a contract for 24,000 carbines and small-calibre sporting rifles and arms, with the first shipment to be made in January.
The NATO military alliance, including the United States, bombed the Zastava factory several times during a campaign aimed at ending a 1998-1999 crackdown by then Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic's forces against Albanian separatists.
The Zastava company is known also for its automobile production and recently signed a deal to build cars for giant Italian automaker Fiat.
