Our modular approach
Saab’s C4I systems are built on a number of
separate reused or new developed functions
that is merged to one functional and operational
system. All our systems are built on a
basic platform which is your guarantee for a
well functioning system and high availability.
Our reuse of software and functions gives
you an excellent platform for development of
any type of Air Defence System.
Saab always tries to work in close cooperation
with the customer and the end user. This
cooperation in combination with the reuse
of our well proven system functionality, our
experience and our deep technical knowledge
gives you the following benefits:
• Short period of time between contract
and delivery
• Cost efficient projects
• Reuse of well known, well tested and
well documented functions
• Delivered reference systems in operational
use
• Linux based system
Your freedom of choice, as our customer, is
that you only need to select desired functions.
Saab’s goal is to optimize all our delivered
C4I systems for their purpose in order
to create cost effective systems with optimal
performance.
