Denmark has begun the process of procuring systems to increase air, land, and sea presence and surveillance across its Arctic areas of interest, Naval News reports.
This procurement process is supporting capability requirements set out in a supplement to the current Danish Defence Agreement (which covers the 2018-23 period). The supplement, known as ‘The Arctic Capability package’, was published in February 2021.
