About the Arctic Command The Arctic Command is an operational command with responsibility for all the Defense's deployments in the North Atlantic and the Arctic. The command's area of ​​responsibility includes both Greenland and the Faroe Islands as well as surrounding sea areas. Arctic Command's mission is to protect the Kingdom in the Arctic. This entails the ability to handle crises and ultimately carry out military defense of Greenland and the Faroe Islands - in cooperation with other national and international headquarters. In the Arctic Command, we have deployed units from the Navy and the Air Force in operational control 24/7, which requires commitment and a Combined/Joint approach to the tasks. We carry out surveillance and assertion of sovereignty - all year round. At the same time, we solve a large number of important operational tasks, e.g. search and rescue service, environmental monitoring, fisheries inspection and support for civil society. This requires foresight and close cooperation with the state and military authorities in the countries neighboring Greenland and the Faroe Islands. If necessary, the Command can be reinforced by units from all defenses as well as the Home Guard, the Special Operations Command and the National Emergency Management Agency. Arctic Command has its headquarters in Nuuk, where approximately 60 employees currently work. In addition, the command has personnel in several locations on the east and west coast of Greenland, on the Faroe Islands and in Denmark. Arctic Command in Nuuk currently houses the American consulate in Greenland and personnel from the Danish Meteorological Institute.
