About this report
Sweden has placed a new order with Saab AB for the production of a next-generation launcher system for the Gripen C/D and Gripen E fighter aircraft, marking another key investment in the country’s domestic air combat capabilities.
The contract, valued at approximately SEK 1 billion (around €86 million) , was awarded by the Swedish Defence Materiel Agency (FMV) as part of an existing framework agreement and follows a previous development phase that included integration testing on both versions of the multirole fighter.
Key questions this report answers
- What capability does Saab's next-generation launcher system add to the Gripen C/D and Gripen E fighter aircraft?
- How does the SEK 1 billion (around €86 million) contract fit within the existing FMV framework agreement and prior development phase?
- Why does Sweden's investment in a domestically produced launcher matter for its national air combat autonomy?
- What does the integration testing on both Gripen versions indicate about the maturity and readiness of the launcher program?
