The first Danish F-35A arrive at Skrydstrup

September 14, 2023

Four Royal Danish Air Force F-35As landed at Skrydstrup air base in Jutland after flying from the United States. Denmark, a programme partner since its development phase, had approved the purchase in 2016 with a parliamentary agreement for twenty-seven aircraft to replace its F-16s. The aircraft were assigned to 727 Squadron.
