STOCKHOLM (BNS): Swedish Defence and Security company Saab has signed a contract on further deliveries of components for the Carl-Gustaf man-portable weapon system.
The order has a total value of SEK 127 million and comprises components for ammunition to the Carl-Gustaf system, a modern and effective ground support weapon system, Saab said.
The contract also includes an option for additional orders with a total value of SEK 60 million.
