cooperation formation 4 november 2009 type international organisation members 5 states denmark finland iceland norway sweden website http www nordefco org the nordic defence cooperation nordefco is a collaboration among the nordic countries in the area of defence 1 2 its five members are denmark finland iceland norway and sweden the organization aims to strengthen the member countries defence capabilities by identifying areas for cooperation and promoting effective solutions the memorandum of understanding was signed in helsinki on november 4 2009 succeeding the nordic supportive defence structures nordsup the nordic armaments cooperation nordac and the nordic coordinated arrangement for military peace support nordcaps previous parallel cooperative arrangements 3 participation in the nordefco is voluntary and states can choose which areas they want to collaborate within and to what extent this means that cooperation can occur bilaterally and among all five members it is also considered within the organizational scope to work with non nordic countries in fields where there is an added value to doing so according to the official webpage the cooperation is based on the conviction that there is much to be gained through cost sharing joint solutions and joint actions limitations edit practical nordic and scandinavian defence cooperation has been impeded by their differing memberships membership of the principal european and western defence arrangements european union north atlantic treaty organization organisation for joint armament cooperation finabel denmark yes yes no no finland yes yes partial yes iceland no yes no no norway partial non voting participation in the european defence agency of the eu s common security and defence policy yes no yes sweden yes yes partial yes organization edit the official presidency of the organization rotates among the member states but the nordic ministers of defence are ultimately responsible for nordefco they meet twice a year they preside over the nordic defence policy steering committee composed of senior departmental officers from the member countries underneath this committee is the nordic military coordination committee composed of flag officers who represent the member countries chiefs of defence the areas of cooperation copas are divided into five sections strategic development copa sd capabilities copa capa human resources education copa hr e training exercises copa tr ex operations copa ops these are staffed with senior officers from the participating countries and mandated to further coordinate and implement the given tasks the recommendations reported back from the copas also form the basis for the decisions made by the nordic defence policy steering committee and the nordic military coordination committee in addition to the cooperation areas acquisition life cycle support alcs is tasked with coordinating and facilitating armaments relating to cooperation issues this is performed through a yearly screening process where all participating nations provide input from their procurement plans the plans are compared screened and cooperation possibilities vetted by alcs are identified if considered suitable for further cooperation established formally as a subgroup these subgroups comprise experts from the participating nations and are tasked with establishing the foundations for how cooperation can happen for instance gearing towards a common procurement project historically such cooperation has enabled the nordic nations to take advantage of upwards of 60 million in cost savings nordic combat uniform edit main article nordic combat uniform wanting a more integrated military in the nordic countries the nordic militaries began a search for a shared nordic combat uniform ncu including all clothing from underwear to jacket the countries each provided a list of demands to suppliers wanting customization and ability to easily modify them for a wide range of climates 4 5 following a series of tests a system was chosen and the first orders made in 2022 while the clothing systems are the same each country uses its camouflage pattern 6 mutual defence edit see also nordic battlegroup and scandinavian defence union nordefco has not generally been seen as a mutual defence pact and it is not regarded as a command structure but its members have increasingly added features that show some resemblance to a defence pact in 2021 the defence ministers of denmark norway and sweden signed an agreement of increased cooperation among their militaries with a coordination structure that would make it easier to act together in peace crisis or conflict in the southern nordic region 7 8 and in 2022 it was agreed to further enhance the capabilities by allowing access to each other s airspace and military infrastructure 9 a similar agreement for the northern nordic region already existed between finland norway and sweden which was further updated in 2022 10 following finland s and sweden s request to join nato in 2022 denmark iceland and norway released a statement saying that in the case of an attack on finland or sweden before they had become part of nato all necessary means would be used to help in their defence 11 12 see also edit finland nato relations sweden nato relations common security and defence policy of the european union
