Deliveries will take place throughout 2025 and 2026
Terma has signed an agreement with the Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation (DALO) to deliver 32 modern coastal surveillance radars. The new systems will replace the current radar infrastructure, ensuring continued maritime domain awareness and sovereignty protection across Danish waters.
The radar upgrade will enhance Denmark’s ability to monitor maritime traffic, respond to potential threats against critical infrastructure, and protect the marine environment. The systems will also support the Vessel Traffic Service (VTS), which coordinates the safe passage of ships through major Danish straits.
“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.” says Henriette Hallberg Thygesen, CEO of Terma.
In addition to the new radar hardware, the project includes a modernized integration platform that will fuse data from all radar sites using Artificial Intelligence (AI). This capability will improve real-time situational awareness and support multi-domain operations by delivering intelligently processed data to decision-makers.
The full procurement package includes:
- 32 new radars to replace existing coastal systems in Denmark
- AI-supported radar data integration and fusion
- Spare parts and technical documentation
- Training and courses for technical personnel responsible for system maintenance
- Two coastal radars for deployment in Greenland as part of the Arctic capability agreements
The new radar systems will be installed primarily on existing towers. Replacement will take place gradually to ensure uninterrupted operational capacity throughout the implementation phase. The entire coastal surveillance system is expected to be fully operational by the end of 2026.
