Australia looks towards space with force restructure, investment and training
Australia is looking to improve its presence in space with a focus on communications and creating a dedicated segment of its defence forces committed to the domain.
Saab has received an order worth $25.6 million from the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) for the upgrade of Gripen C/D system.
The upgrade involves improvements to and modifications of existing capabilities in the MS20 upgrade, which was introduced across the Swedish Air Force Gripen fleet in 2016.
The ordered upgrades concern capabilities such as target acquisition, self-protection, communication and human-machine interaction, as well as a number of support and training systems.
The work will be performed at Saab's facilities in Gothenburg, Järfälla, Linköping and Arboga. Deliveries will take place between 2018 and 2020.
