Terma Signs Support Agreement with Argentina to Modernize Former Danish F-16s

Terma has officially signed a major support agreement with the Argentinian Ministry of Defense and the Argentinian Air Force (Fuerza Aérea Argentina, FAA), confirming its leading role in the Terma F-16 modernization Argentina program. This initiative is focused on upgrading and operationally preparing 24 F-16 fighter jets, previously operated by the Royal Danish Air Force.

Background: F-16 Transfer from Denmark to Argentina

This modernization agreement follows the April 2024 sale of F-16 aircraft from Denmark’s Ministry of Defense Acquisition and Logistics Organisation (DALO) to Argentina. Facilitated in coordination with the U.S. Government, the transfer significantly boosts Argentina’s air combat capabilities. The involvement of Terma further strengthens its reputation as a key defense technology provider to NATO-aligned and allied nations.

Terma’s Role in Argentina’s F-16 Modernization Program

As part of the Terma F-16 modernization Argentina effort, Terma will deliver essential upgrades and long-term support services. These include:

  • Enhancements to the aircraft’s Electronic Warfare (EW) systems

  • Software and hardware upgrades

  • Mission planning systems

  • Ground support equipment

  • Ongoing engineering and maintenance support

These capabilities are being integrated into a wider refurbishment and upgrade program led by Lockheed Martin Aeronautics, the original manufacturer of the F-16 Fighting Falcon.

Strengthening Argentina’s Defense Readiness

Terma’s advanced solutions are engineered to ensure the F-16s meet the operational and mission-specific requirements of the Fuerza Aérea Argentina. The upgrades will enable the aircraft to operate efficiently in both national defense and joint operations contexts.

A Terma spokesperson commented, “This agreement marks a strategic milestone in Argentina’s fighter aircraft acquisition program and reinforces Terma’s dedication to supporting global defense modernization.”

Future of Aerospace Collaboration

The Terma F-16 modernization Argentina agreement also strengthens bilateral defense ties between Denmark and Argentina. It sets the stage for future collaboration in aerospace and defense technology, opening opportunities for innovation, knowledge transfer, and industrial growth.
