Soldiers from the Schleswig Infantry Regiment on drill at the Oksboel Shooting and Training Ground, Jutland, Denmark, March 16, 2023. "Ammunition production in Europe is under severe pressure, and we should also try to find solutions in Denmark to contribute where we can based on Danish needs," Lund Poulsen said in the statement. "It will take time before we are ready with production, but therefore it is also good that we are now getting started with the work," Lund Poulsen added. The plant had previously been owned by a private Spanish company and was in use until 2020.
