UAE orders Saab SRSS
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is to expand and enhance its airborne surveillance capabilities under a contract with Saab for a new airborne Swing Role Surveillance System (SRSS).
The order, worth approximately $1.27 billion, will incorporate a new version of the Saab Erieye radar system integrated with the Bombardier Global 6000 aircraft.
The SRSS is capable of simultaneous detection and tracking of multiple targets in the air, on land and at sea.
Håkan Buskhe, president and CEO, Saab, said: ‘The new version of Erieye is without a doubt the most capable airborne early warning and control system on the market. Saab’s capability to develop high technology solutions for customers shows that our focus on research and development is the right way to ensure continued competitiveness on the defence market.’
Micael Johansson, head of Electronic Defence Systems, Saab, added: ‘Saab understands the vital importance of advanced airborne surveillance and we have a family of products that play a key role in defence and civil security. The UAE’s selection of Saab’s solution confirms our strong position regarding airborne surveillance and systems integration.’
