Saab will participate at Euronaval 2014, held from 27-31 October at the Le Bourget exhibition centre, Paris. Saab takes its place at this international naval and maritime event as a first tier global supplier of advanced naval vessels and systems.
Ted Ackerstierna, head of the Saab’s naval segment in Western Europe welcomes all visitors to the Saab stand:
Saab has a long background in supplying naval systems, it goes back some 60 years and we would like to bring you along with us on our naval journey.
Saab has recently acquired Kockums in Sweden and so becomes a global supplier in complete naval systems. At the same time system integration on any platform remains one of the Company’s core competencies.
They have a strong focus on strategic partnerships with key shipyards, and at Euronaval two of their partners that are displaying their vessels next to the Saab stand.
Saab will present new solutions in the command and control area, including training concepts plus new features in their TACTICAL communication system. They recently launched two new radars to complement the Sea Giraffe radar family and deliver increased situational awareness with the capability to detect and react to increasingly sophisticated threats.
At Euronaval, Saab is exhibiting on Stand F16.
Through Kockums, Saab has gained the capability to develop and deliver complete platform solutions, with particular emphasis on submarines.
Saab continues to be a respected supplier of integrated systems that are fully platform-independent and tailored to a very wide range of national needs. This capability has been thoroughly tested and proven by navies around the world.
Saab is a source of key enabling technologies, such as radars, weapons and air independent propulsion (AIP) systems. At the same time, Saab can fully integrate all similar third-party equipment to meet specific customer requirements.
Saab has a fundamental belief in the benefits of international partnership and is already working in close cooperation with many international ship designers and builders.
