The Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organization (DALO) has signed a contract with Terma related to Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD).
The contract aims to provide DALO with study and advisory support within the IAMD and Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) domains related to the Danish government’s decision to upgrade at least one of the Iver Huitfeldt class frigates to a BMD sensor role and offer this capability to the NATO BMD system.
Terma offers its C-Flex command and control system for IAMD capability on board naval vessels, providing situational awareness for anti-air warfare and BMD simultaneously.
Thomas Blom, senior vice president, command, control and sensor systems, Terma, said: ‘Under this contract with the Danish Navy, we will leverage our extensive experience as the leading Danish company within the BMD and IAMD domains to support the Danish Navy in preparing for this capability to be added to the Iver Huitfeldt-class multi mission frigates.
‘Because they were designed to be prepared for this mission, the frigate-based BMD offering to NATO is the most affordable option with the lowest risk for a country such as Denmark, while at the same time providing the only realistic pathway to a later engagement capability.’
The airborne three-domain, the two ground-based and the ¼ ATR OpenVPX-based cross-domain systems were engineered to provide real-time security across multi-domain operations.
DARPA’s Mission-Integrated Network Control (MINC) programme was set up to develop an autonomous tactical network and enable critical data flow in contested environments.
Why space is an essential part of modern military capabilities
Defence-secure mixed reality headsets can save hours, or even weeks, of travel time to fix defunct equipment or get subject experts effectively “on-site” where they are needed.
The Joint Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device Electronic Warfare (JCREW) counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) and Drone Restricted Access Using Known Electromagnetic Warfare (DRAKE) counter-UAS (CUAS) systems are mounted and dismounted RF jammers.
