The new radars will be delivered throughout 2025 and 2026, with installation taking place primarily on existing towers. Replacement will be phased to maintain uninterrupted operational capacity, with full system deployment expected by the end of 2026.
The upgraded radar systems will enhance Denmark’s ability to monitor maritime traffic, protect critical infrastructure, and support the marine environment. They will also aid the Vessel Traffic Service (VTS), which manages safe navigation through key Danish straits.
“This agreement reflects Terma’s enduring commitment to supporting Denmark’s sovereignty and security,” said Terma CEO Henriette Hallberg Thygesen. “As a Danish company with decades of global experience in advanced coastal surveillance, we are proud to deliver solutions that strengthen national resilience and safeguard our maritime domains.”
She added, “This delivery is another milestone in Terma’s close relationship with the Danish Defence and contributing to the country’s ability to navigate future challenges with confidence.”
The procurement includes not only the 32 radars but also two additional systems for Greenland under Arctic capability agreements. The package features AI-supported data fusion, spare parts, technical documentation, and training for maintenance personnel.
A modernised integration platform will fuse data from all radar sites using Artificial Intelligence, enhancing real-time situational awareness. This capability will support multi-domain operations by delivering processed data to decision-makers quickly and efficiently.
