Saab has received an additional order from the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) worth SEK 579 million to ensure the continued operation and capability enhancement of Gripen C/D.
The additional order includes designing new development and simulation environments for Gripen C/D as well as developing new support systems that will facilitate the harmonisation of Gripen C/D and Gripen E for the Swedish customer. The order also includes supplementary orders for equipment and hardware.
Lars Tossman, Head of Saab’s Aeronautics business area, commented: “The upgrade of Gripen C/D is an important step in maintaining a high level of operational capability in the turbulent world we live in. It is also important in order for Gripen C/D to operate beyond 2030.”
