NATO selects Saab GlobalEye for airborne surveillance

NATO has selected Saab's GlobalEye for its future airborne surveillance needs. Up to ten aircraft will monitor air, sea and land.

The NATO defence alliance is buying up to ten GlobalEye aircraft from Saab. The system will among other things detect missile attacks in time.

Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M) described the decision as a proud moment for Sweden.

The deal is expected to create more jobs in Linköping and Göteborg. Municipal councillor Elias Aguirre (S) in Linköping expressed pride in Östgöta engineering contributing to the defence of both Sweden and NATO.
