Saab to Modernise German Navy’s F123 Frigate
Saab recently received an order to deliver and integrate new naval radars and fire control directors for and in the German Navy’s Frigates of the Brandenburg-Class (F123) and has signed a contract with the German Federal Office of Bundeswehr Equipment, Information Technology and In-Service Support (BAAINBw).
The contract includes a new combat management system to completely overhaul the system currently in use on the F123, allowing a low-risk integration of the new naval radars and fire control capabilities. The order value is approximately 4.6 billion SEK. Deliveries and other services will take place between 2021 and 2030.
Saab will be the prime contractor and will contract the German shipyard Abeking & Rasmussen for the shipbuilding work while the German company ESG will carry out logistical support. The company will carry out the work in Germany, Sweden, and Australia.
“We are proud that Germany has selected Saab as the combat system provider and integrator for the frigates to be overhauled. We look forward to contributing to strengthening Germany’s domestic combat systems integration capability, creating a high proportion of value and service provision in Germany. This contract will further strengthen our relationship with Germany for many years to come,” says Micael Johansson, Saab’s President and CEO.
The contract includes delivery and integration of Saab’s 9LV Combat Management System, Sea Giraffe 4A and Sea Giraffe 1X radars, Ceros 200 fire control director as well as third party systems, including IFF capability. It also includes a comprehensive, performance-based logistics package supporting the frigates’ operational capabilities.
The 9LV Combat System (CS) provides naval forces with noteworthy operational capabilities, supporting all mission types, from littorals to the open ocean. The Sea Giraffe 4A is a naval long-range AESA S-band multifunction radar providing the awareness required to protect the ship. While the Sea Giraffe 1x offer a higher level of awareness towards multiple domains including small targets. Additionally, the Ceros offers high acquisition speed and precision, together with the ability to track any target in any weather situation.
Saab serves the global market with world-leading products, services and solutions within military defence and civil security. The company has operations on all continents. Through innovative and collaborative thinking, the firm develops, adopts, and improves new technology to meet the changing needs of the defence industry.
