Notes

    1 - Contenders for Denmark's Fighter Replacement Program were both 4th and 5th Generation aircraft. Projected totals are for one or the other, depending on which aircraft is chosen in the end, not both.

    2 - These aircraft were transferred from the Army in 2003.

    3 - These aircraft were transferred from the Navy in 2011.
