See who buys defence drones in the Nordics
Tenders, awards, buyers and suppliers in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland, read contract by contract from public procurement records.
Nordic drone procurement, contract by contract
Nordic defence and security buyers often publish in their own language, and many start with a request for information or a market dialogue long before a tender appears. If you sell drones, sensors or counter-drone systems, you need to see those notices early, and to know who won the last contract before you bid on the next one.
This page brings together the 96 contracts on record from buyers in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland: armed forces, procurement agencies, police, and border and coast guards. It uses the same defence and security view as the contracts list, so purchases for civil uses such as air traffic management or marine research are left out.
Awarded value adds up only award records that publish a value, converted from NOK, SEK and DKK to euros at a fixed reference rate, so read it as a floor; tender estimates, framework ceilings and press figures are left out. Counter-drone buyers across Europe and beyond are on the counter-UAS procurement page.
By country
Open a country for its programmes, organisations and suppliers, or go straight to its contracts. The country pages list every drone contract, not only defence and security, so their counts can be higher.
