Saab has signed a framework agreement with the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) for the compact radar system Giraffe 1X and received an order within the agreement. The order value is approximately SEK 650 million with immediate deliveries.
The framework agreement includes Giraffe 1X for use in different parts of the Swedish Armed Forces. The first call-off order includes Giraffe 1X in a Compact Radar Module (CRM) configuration, which enables fast and easy installation on most platforms.
“With this order we contribute to immediately strengthening the Swedish Armed Forces’ ability to detect threats in the air and at the sea surface. The agreement also ensures that Sweden can further increase its capacity in a quick and efficient manner, when needed. This is yet another step in our cooperation with FMV and the Swedish Armed Forces to strengthen Swedish defence capabilities,” says Carl-Johan Bergholm, head of Saab’s business area Surveillance.
