Denmark Selects European Air Defense System Over US Alternative

(MENAFN) According to reports, Denmark has opted for the Franco-Italian SAMP/T NG air defense system instead of the American-made Patriot system, marking the first international sale of this next-generation European platform.

As stated in reports, the system is produced by Thales Group, which confirmed that the agreement includes the delivery of SAMP/T NG components starting in 2028.

"This first export contract includes the supply of SAMP/T NG sections, which are scheduled to be delivered from 2028," the manufacturer said in a statement.

With this decision, Denmark becomes the third country to adopt the system, joining its original developers, France and Italy.

"Denmark will benefit from the increased production capacity for the SAMP/T NG system and the production of Aster missiles," the statement added.

Reports indicate that Denmark had already selected the SAMP/T system over the US-built Patriot in September.

The system itself is developed by Eurosam, a partnership between Thales and missile manufacturer MBDA, involving both French and Italian divisions.
