Denmark announces plans to acquire Joint Strike Missile

The Kingdom of Denmark has today announced its intention to acquire Kongsberg Gruppen ASA’s (‘KONGSBERG’) Joint Strike Missile (JSM) for its fleet of F-35 aircraft.

Denmark is the seventh nation to select the JSM. The scope and value of the contract will be determined by negotiations with the customer. KONGSBERG will update the market after a contract has been signed. 

The JSM is a 5th generation stealth air-to surface missile, which can be carried internally in the F-35A thus ensuring the aircraft’s low-signature capabilities.

The JSM has been selected by Australia, Canada, Germany, Japan, Norway and the United States.
