In the period 2021 to 2026, Denmark will acquire 27 new F-35s. The jet is phasing out the F-16, which since the 1980s has given Denmark the ability to assert Danish sovereignty, take part in international operations and contribute to NATO’s collective defence.

The new Danish F-35 fighter jets are expected to be able to solve the full task complex nationally and internationally from 2027.

The first Danish F-35 fighter jets will continue to be in the USA, and it is not until 2023 that Danish F-35 aircraft will land at Skrydstrup Air Base.
