Public summary

The Thetis class patrol frigates are Denmark's older ice-strengthened ships for North Atlantic and Arctic presence. Their role is sovereignty patrol, fisheries inspection, maritime security, search and rescue support and helicopter-enabled operations around Greenland and the Faroe Islands. They carry enough gun and sensor capability for constabulary work, but their defining value is endurance and Arctic patrol coverage rather than high-end combat.
