Denmark Procures 115 CV90 MkIIIC Combat Vehicles in EUR 1.35 Billion Deal with BAE Systems Hägglunds

In this comprehensive video, we explore Denmark's strategic move to strengthen its defense capabilities through a monumental EUR 1.35 billion agreement with BAE Systems Hägglunds. This procurement involves 115 highly advanced CV90 combat vehicles, specifically the CV9035 Mk IIIC variant, which represents the latest in combat vehicle technology. The deal not only enhances Denmark's military firepower and mobility but also ensures greater protection for its soldiers through the integration of cutting-edge systems such as anti-tank guided missiles and advanced electronic warfare countermeasures. We take an in-depth look at the collaboration between Danish defense contractors like Hydrema Export A/S and BAE Hägglunds, the benefits of the CV90’s new rubber tracks and ergonomic upgrades, and the mid-life upgrade contract that will see the vehicles future-proofed with new turrets, sensors, and data analysis tools. Additionally, we discuss the significance of this acquisition in the context of Denmark’s role within NATO, its growing cooperation with Sweden, and how these combat vehicles contribute to interoperability in international missions.
