Swedish technology company Kebni has announced a new volume order worth SEK 134 million from defence contractor Saab for the continued delivery of its tailored Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs). The IMUs are a critical component in Saab’s NLAW (Next Generation Light Anti-Tank Weapon) system, supporting precision stabilisation and positioning.

 

This marks the fourth volume order under Kebni’s existing collaboration with Saab, with deliveries set to continue after previously agreed orders and extend beyond 2026. The company confirmed that series deliveries, which began in mid-2023, are ongoing.

The cooperation between Kebni and Saab began with a framework agreement signed in June 2020, covering the development and delivery of the custom sensor units for NLAW. Since then, Saab has placed volume orders with Kebni totalling SEK 348 million over the past 30 months.
