Denmark has chosen Lockheed Martin’s TPY-4 ground-based air surveillance radar to improve its long-range air defense. The Danish Acquisition and Logistics Organization (DALO) made the selection, making Denmark the fifth country to adopt this radar system among NATO members.
“This is a major step forward in integrated deterrence,” said Rick Cordaro, vice president of Radar and Sensor Systems at Lockheed Martin. “The TPY-4 radar’s advanced capabilities strengthen interoperability across allied air-defense networks, ensuring Denmark and its regional partners can respond rapidly to evolving threats.”
Denmark will receive three TPY-4 radars, with an option for a fourth unit. These radars are designed to detect and track airborne targets in real time. Their open-architecture design allows integration with existing air and missile defense systems. The addition of the TPY-4 is expected to improve coordination between Denmark, other regional partners, and NATO forces.
Lockheed Martin noted that partnerships with European industry are important for the TPY-4 program. The company works with a network of European suppliers as part of its international radar projects. Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace (KDA), a longstanding partner, contributed to producing the first TPY-4 by building the Platform Electronics System and assembling the first unit produced outside the United States.
Lockheed Martin describes itself as a global defense technology company focused on innovation and delivering mission solutions across multiple domains.
