Ha ha ha. Episk! Du er blevet spurgt til en sag der hidrører FMI, men som hægtes på og der spørges til “hvorfor Forsvaret ikke kan købe ind” og du ved, at uanset hvad du gør, er du fucked.

In short, Howery’s message goes beyond diplomacy.
By highlighting Greenland and NATO in the same breath, Washington puts two of the most important issues for the coming years on top of the table.
That’s not an accident - it’s a reminder.

The second emphasis: NATO readiness and interoperability.

At a time when Denmark is ramping up defense spending, this signals continued U.S. pressure - and partnership - to align Nordic capabilities with NATO’s front-line posture. And… perhaps US vs european spending!

Greenland is the cornerstone of U.S. presence in the Arctic - home to Pituffik Space Base and critical missile-warning and satellite links.

Mentioning it in the first paragraph of an arrival note is deliberate: Washington wants to underline that the Arctic matters.

The new U.S. ambassador-designate to Denmark, Kenneth A. Howery, has arrived.
His statement wasn’t just a formality — it was a signal.
Two words stand out in the press release from the embassy:

Greenland and NATO!

(2/2) Æresgarden gejler i modsætning til Den Kgl Livgarde ikke støvlerne spejlblanke. Men stadig god puds og samtidighed på eksercitsen her i Riga 🤌

Enig. Tænk hvis beslutningen var taget i sommeren 22

No not at all but danish authorities must be betting on that they do

For Denmark, this means its future F-35 squadrons won’t fly alone.
They’ll command semi-autonomous teammates — sensors, decoys, and strike platforms rolled into one.
A small-nation air force preparing for big-power warfare.

It’s effectively a race:
Anduril bets on AI and fast iteration.
General Atomics on experience and logistics.
Whoever integrates best with F-35 mission systems will dominate the new air-combat ecosystem.
