Saab and CAE partner to develop training solution for Canada’s future submarine fleet

By Defence Industry Europe

Swedish defence company Saab and Canadian training technology leader CAE have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to collaborate on a training and simulation solution for Canada’s next generation of submarines. The agreement was formalised during CANSEC 2025 and reflects Saab’s commitment to supporting a sovereign submarine capability built on Canadian industry involvement.

 

The partnership will focus on exploring opportunities under the Canadian Patrol Submarine Project (CPSP) to deliver world-class training and simulation technologies. The goal is to equip Royal Canadian Navy crews with advanced, mission-ready training tools tailored for future submarine operations.

 

 

 

“We are proud to partner with CAE, a global leader in training and simulation with deep roots in Canada,” said Anders Carp, Deputy CEO of Saab. “This agreement underscores our approach to building a truly Canadian submarine solution, leveraging the best of Canadian expertise alongside Saab’s more than 100 years of experience in submarine design and construction.”

 

 

Saab brings a long-standing heritage of designing submarines that can operate in complex and demanding environments, including Arctic conditions. “It is our strong belief that Saab’s submarine will exceed the requirements of the Royal Canadian Navy, enhancing Canada’s naval deterrence,” Carp added.
