Traffic areas we can see that the Nordic countries is still the strongest one, even if we expect that Europe now when we are adding radar over 12 months will become bigger than the Nordic countries, and that is also what we see here in these numbers that Europe is showing that they are really starting to pick up. They are growing 15% at this point if we compare to 12 months back in time.
So when we close 2025, I think that we will have been transformed MLA to a strong Nordic company that we are seeing a bigger footprint in Europe and that Europe will be Central Europe, will be the main market for MilDef.
Back to the order intake and I showed this picture before, but it's really important for us is, as I said, the fuel for the middle and that is our future revenue, future net sales, future cash flow, and also give us confidence and continue with this capacity ramp up and adding more resources on top of everything and book to build rate to almost 1.8. So continue with a strong order intake.
