The upgraded radar is expected to augment Denmark’s capabilities in monitoring maritime traffic, responding to potential threats to critical infrastructure, and preserving the marine environment.

In addition, these systems will assist the vessel traffic service in managing the safe movement of ships through Denmark’s major straits.

Terma CEO Henriette Hallberg Thygesen said: “This agreement reflects Terma’s enduring commitment to supporting Denmark’s sovereignty and security. 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. 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 contract also includes a modern integration platform that employs AI to consolidate data from all radar sites.

This feature is designed to enhance real-time situational awareness and facilitate multi-domain operations by providing decision-makers with AI-processed data.

The installation process for the new radar systems will primarily utilise existing tower structures.

By the end of 2026, the full coastal surveillance system is expected to reach full operational status.
