Gripen and GlobalEye: supremacy in the air from Saab

Source: Saab, Defence Industry Europe

Saab maintains the widest and most advanced set of defence and aerospace capabilities in Europe, with fully independent, system-level design and development skills across all domains (air, land, sea, space and cyber). Saab products and systems are vital to the defence and security of Europe, and the world. Now, more than ever, Saab’s advanced technology is needed to meet the real and pressing threats to society that challenge the safety and security of all.

 

For almost 90 years Saab has been the guarantor of advanced defence technology and strategic autonomy for Sweden and for our customers worldwide. Saab maintains its world-leading edge by developing solutions that are always operationally relevant, supremely capable and cost effective.

In the air domain the two best examples of this are the GlobalEye airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) system and the Gripen multi-role fighter. Each of these next-generation systems redefines what it means it to deliver superior airpower. Each of these is the most modern and capable of their type available anywhere on the market today. Each of these gives the smart air force the operational advantage that delivers mission success at all times.

 

 

Saab’s GlobalEye is the only AEW&C solution that provides long-range surveillance and detection for air, sea and land, in real-time, against all target types, from a single platform. GlobalEye is in production, delivered and proven in operational front-line service. Fully interoperable with all joint and Allied forces, GlobalEye can be configured to meet specific customer needs and act as a national asset at the hub of all-domain operations.

Built for forward-thinking air forces, Gripen E/F is the most modern fighter on the market today. Its advanced and proven capabilities include the very latest system design techniques, multiple sensors, complex multi-band electronic warfare and the widest range of weapons options to ensure total air superiority in highly-contested environments. Gripen E/F maintains Sweden’s unique expertise in dispersed and deployed operations that allows the fighter force to survive attack and sustain options in the face of any threat.

When operating together, GlobalEye and Gripen can transform all aspects of national defence. This integrated, networked and agile team extends the reach of surveillance and awareness, translating directly to a major advantage for the fighter force. With GlobalEye providing advanced threat detection over long distances, the fighter force and the entire armed forces have better data and more time in which to act – the two key factors for success.

 

 

All recent operational experience shows the undeniable relevance for the advanced capabilities built into GlobalEye and Gripen from their inception. Saab has always designed and delivered advanced systems that meet the needs of the operator while also maintaining ease-of-use, fewer support and logistic demands and a future growth plan that is assured and affordable.

Saab remains the proven supplier to maintain your operational edge and national independence, now more than ever.
