Saab in the UAE: Echoing the Development and Innovation Rhythm
Since its inception in the UAE in the 1980s, Saab has played a central role in the UAE defence industry delivering innovative defence and security solutions across the air, land, and naval domains. Based in the UAE capital Abu Dhabi, it gained the reputation for aligning the business with the vision and values of the Emirates through its partnerships and focus on developing the country’s defence and security industry.
Dubbed “Little Sparta” in military circles, the UAE’s military ambitions are positioning it as a leading force in the region. Saab in the UAE supports the young nation’s ambition in building its defence and security industry and ecosystem.
One of Saab’s flagship products is GlobalEye, the world’s most advanced airborne early warning and control solution. GlobalEye supports government- and military forces with real time-information, whether in times of peace, crisis or war. With its mix of modern active and passive sensors, it is the only early warning and control solution on the market that can provide long-range air-, sea- and land surveillance in real time, from a single platform. The GlobalEye programme with UAE is running according to plan and Saab recently received a follow-on contract regarding the sale of two more systems.
This commitment to the UAE was reinforced in 2018 when Saab officially established its development and production centre at Tawazun Industrial Park in the capital city for the development and production of a variety of defence and security products.
Home-grown Entity
Seeing itself as a home-grown entity that is part of a major global company, Saab UAE is on the hunt for investments, innovations and partnerships to further grow in the country, improve the nation’s self-sufficiency in the security and defence space and make a positive contribution to UAE society and its people.
As well as co-creating unrivalled defence and security technologies that cater to national and global defence needs, the company is working to digitalise and localise the supply chain and nurture Emirati talent, build engineering skills and create high-tech jobs in the country.
As a company, Saab has grown rapidly and is driving new and greater collaborations between government, industry and academia. The range of its work and its commitment to creating innovative products, supporting high-tech job creation, and improving the UAE’s competitiveness in the defence and security sector, all mean Saab is in the country to stay.
