Primary Focus and Goals

Shared Architecture: The coalition’s objective is to develop a comprehensive, interoperable missile defense network to protect Europe from ballistic threats.
The “FREYJA” Project: The flagship initiative of the coalition is a mass-producible, affordable anti-ballistic system. It is built around a Ukrainian-designed interceptor missile (from manufacturer Fire Point), which is designed to serve as a lower-cost alternative to the U.S.-made Patriot system.
Industrial Cooperation: The program brings together operational expertise, research institutions, and defense manufacturers from across the participating countries (including Thales, MBDA, Saab, Diehl Defence, and Eurosam) to scale up the production of critical defense components. [2, 9]

-Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський (@ZelenskyyUa)The reality in Ukraine right now is that sometimes we do not have the missiles needed to intercept ballistic missiles. That is why we launched a new Anti-Ballistic Missile Program that includes coordination across the political, governmental, and industrial dimensions and can deliver anti-ballistic weapons at scale: the system and the missiles for it.

We named the program FREYJA, and today our Anti-Ballistic Missile Coalition held its first, inaugural meeting. Thank you, friends, for your support. It is important that European companies are also represented – specifically those that manufacture critical components for defense systems: Fire Point, Thales, Diehl Defence, Saab, Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace, Weibel, Leonardo, Sener, MBDA, Eurosam, Safran, and Destinus.

Each of us has important pieces. Ukraine has missiles, but they are only part of the system. Together, over the next 12 months, we can build this system at scale – FREYJA.
