Saab Receives Order from Sweden on Giraffe 4A Radar Systems

Saab has received an order from the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) of Giraffe 4A radar systems with associated services to the Swedish Armed Forces. The order value is approximately SEK 1.4 billion with deliveries 2026-2027.

Giraffe 4A will further strengthen Sweden’s ground-based air surveillance and offers a mobile modern sensor, enabling software-based updates.

“We are proud to continue to support the Swedish Armed Forces by an important piece of the puzzle in the new sensor system program and thereby Swedish national defence. Giraffe 4A strengthens Sweden’s mid-range sensor capability and make for a long-term capability development, says Carl-Johan Bergholm, Head of Business Area Surveillance.

Giraffe 4A is a multi-functional radar, giving the user several different capabilities. By the ability to identify and track a high number of objects simultaneously the system is suitable for air and sea surveillance as well as military air traffic control.
