The US State Department has approved the possible foreign military sales (FMS) of air and missile defense systems to Denmark, with a total combined cost of $3.73 billion.
Copenhagen has requested an Integrated Battle Command System with Indirect Fire Protection Capability (IBCS-IFPC), along with related equipment and program support for $3 billion.
The package includes 24 all-up round magazines; eight IFPC Increment 2 launchers; two Sentinel A4 radars; two IBCS engagement operations centers; two IBCS integrated collaborative environments; and six IBCS integrated fire control network relays.
In addition, the NATO country requested 200 RTX-manufactured AIM-120C-8 Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAM) with three AIM-120-C8 AMRAAM guidance sections and related equipment and support for approximately $730 million.
This ensures that Denmark has “modern and capable air-to-air munitions,” which will “further advance the already high level of Danish Air Force interoperability with U.S. Joint Forces and other regional and NATO forces,” according to the Defense Security Cooperation Agency.
