Ukrainian defense companies expanded their role at this year’s DALO Industry Days in Herning, Denmark, announcing plans for a new solid rocket propellant factory on Danish soil and signing new institutional partnerships.
The annual gathering, organized by the Danish Defense Acquisition and Logistics Organisation as part of the Ministry of Defense’s Open for Business strategy, relocated to MCH Messecenter Herning after the number of exhibitors grew from over 700 companies in 2025 to more than 1,200 in 2026.
We bring you stories from the ground. Your support keeps our team in the field.
The platform serves as a direct point of contact between military officials, government representatives, and private contractors.
Participating for the second consecutive year, Ukrainian manufacturers showcased an evolving relationship with European partners.
Ukrainian Ambassador to Denmark Andrii Yanevskyi noted during the event that "the time has come for us not to shy away from being just a receiver of the support, but also building unique technologies that will help protect Europe."
The Ukrainian contingent featured several key firms, including Fire Point, Frontline Robotics, Dev Droid, and TAF Industries. A separate display was hosted by MITS Industries, a Danish-incorporated investment platform created in September 2025 by MITS Capital to group leading Ukrainian defense technology firms.
Headquartered in Copenhagen and Kyiv, MITS Industries oversees Tencore in unmanned ground vehicles, Infozahyst in signals intelligence, and Unwave in electronic warfare, projecting overall revenue to exceed $150 million to $200 million in 2026.
During the event, Tencore finalized a Memorandum of Understanding with Danish firm Copenhagen Global A/S under the Build with Ukraine initiative. The agreement will supply Tencore's combat-tested unmanned ground vehicles to institutional procurement entities in Denmark.
Roman Tkachenko, co-founder and Chief Business Development Officer of Tencore, stated, "We are grateful to Copenhagen Global A/S for their trust and look forward to our close cooperation. It's extremely gratifying to see Europe adopting the Ukrainian experience, realizing the critical importance of robotization."
Fire Point presented full-scale models of its FP-7 and FP-9 ballistic missiles, the FP-5 Flamingo cruise missile, and the FP-1 deep-strike drone.
At a press conference, the company disclosed details regarding its solid rocket propellant and motor casing facility in Denmark, which is set to become its first production site outside Ukraine.
Speaking on Denmark’s early support, Fire Point CEO Iryna Terekh stated, "From recipient of aid you probably can expect a gratitude. And the gratitude is great thing, but it will not convert into anything useful at the battlefield at the moment.
So the way how Denmark looked at Ukraine as a mature supplier and a partner, a trustful, even with all the risks that, even with all the propaganda calling Ukraine the most corrupting country in the world and so on, it's worse."
Addressing the FREYJA anti-ballistic missile program, Terekh explained that engineering teams have reached the integration phase, connecting launchers, interceptors, data links, and command hubs.
She indicated that test firings are occurring weekly or twice weekly within Ukraine alongside 13 European defense partners. Terekh added that "Never before Europe had moved with such a speed to solve the challenge that also never before Europe had to solve."
Ukrainian defense firm Fire Point made a significant step forward in its European expansion by beginning construction on a major solid rocket propellant plant in Denmark.
Positioned as the company’s first production site outside Ukraine and the first Ukrainian defense manufacturing facility on NATO territory, the project saw its budget grow from an initial $58 million to over $175 million.
Speaking at the DALO Industry Days in Herning, Fire Point COO Viacheslav Bondarchuk confirmed that the company had secured all necessary permits and aimed to supply both its own systems and other European defense manufacturers to help solve critical solid propellant shortages across the continent.
