The Danish government is in talks with the Ukrainian defense company Skyfall about the possibility of establishing production in Denmark.

This is according to a statement from the Ministry of Defense. (https://www.fmn.dk/da/nyheder/2026/dialog-med-endnu-en-ukrainsk-forsvarsindustrivirksomhed-med-henblik-pa-etablering-i-danmark/)

It would be the second Ukrainian defense company to set up operations on Danish soil.

Back in September last year, the government announced that the company Fire Point will produce rocket fuel in the South Jutland town of Vojens near Skrydstrup Air Base.

At the time, Denmark was the first country in the defense alliance NATO to welcome Ukrainian arms production.

Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen (V), who is in Ukraine this Tuesday to mark the four-year anniversary of Russia’s invasion, discussed the defense company with Ukraine’s defense minister during his visit.

"Denmark has been one of Ukraine’s biggest supporters since the start of the war. First with donations, training of Ukrainian personnel, and later with direct investments in Ukrainian defense industry through the Danish model," says Troels Lund Poulsen.

"Bringing strong Ukrainian defense companies to Denmark in collaboration with Danish industry will strengthen both Denmark’s and Ukraine’s security," says Troels Lund Poulsen.

**Collaboration with Danish companies**

Skyfall produces drones among other things.

If Skyfall is to produce in Denmark, the company will be "encouraged" to collaborate with Danish companies, according to the statement.

While negotiations with Skyfall are ongoing, the company will be screened regarding issues such as corruption and money laundering.

When Fire Point begins building its factory in Vojens, it will be allowed to bypass more than 20 different rules and regulations.

This is possible after the Folketinget (Danish Parliament) in September passed a law allowing Troels Lund Poulsen to disregard a number of rules when it comes to military projects of significant national importance.

Over time, Fire Point will have to meet the normal requirements for a company of that type.
