The system is intended to protect the Swedish Armed Forces as well as civil infrastructure from threats posed by drones. Saab said the capability will strengthen and complement Sweden’s existing air defence and counter-drone posture.
The company is developing and deploying the system in partnership with the Swedish Armed Forces and the Defence Materiel Administration. Saab said the solution is designed to provide a layered, adaptable and cost-efficient defence against modern drone threats.
“With today’s order Sweden will acquire an advanced mobile, modular counter-unmanned aerial system. This technology enhances airspace security by detecting, tracking, and mitigating unmanned aerial threats, and can be easily integrated with other systems,” said Carl-Johan Bergholm, head of Saab’s business area Surveillance.
Saab said the system is designed as a modular and mobile platform capable of detecting and neutralising low-flying small- to medium-sized drones. It combines Saab’s sensors and effectors with selected third-party technologies into a single interoperable solution.
The company added that the system is built on established components and is fully operational and ready for deployment. It is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing defence assets to enhance overall capability.
