Saab has received a SEK 350 million order from Denmark's Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation for additional live training equipment, with deliveries scheduled for 2026–2028. PR Newswire reported the order on November 11, 2026. Saab is a Stockholm-headquartered, Nasdaq-listed Swedish defence and security prime founded in 1937 that designs, manufactures and supports multi-domain air, land, naval and security systems for national governments in over 100 countries, according to company records.

Saab Expands Denmark's Live Training Capability

The order expands Denmark's live training capability to reflect changes in modern warfare, including drones, long-range precision effects and new ways of operating. It includes Saab's Instrumented Laser Duel System (ILDS) for the CV90, with new non-line-of-sight and drone training capabilities. The order builds on the Combat Training Centre contract that Saab signed with Denmark in 2025, under which four training sites were established.

"Training must evolve as fast as the battlefield. By bringing capabilities such as drones and long-range precision effects into live exercises, soldiers can train as they will operate and build confidence before facing these situations for real," said Joakim Alhbin, Head of Saab's business unit Training and Simulation. "With this delivery, Denmark continues to develop one of the most modern and flexible Combat Training Centres in Europe," he said. Saab has customers for training and simulation solutions in more than 40 countries worldwide, according to its announcement.

Saab's Recent Contract Wins

Saab's recent moves include a June 2026 defense contract under which Sweden finalized an agreement for Saab to supply three A26 next-generation submarines to Poland worth 26 billion SEK, with first vessel delivery scheduled for 2030, according to akta.pro company records. In the same month, Saab made a strategic investment of EUR 11.1 million for a 10% equity stake in Paris-based battlefield AI company Comand AI to integrate AI-native planning into its C2 and C5ISR capabilities including GlobalEye. In May 2026, Canada designated Saab as preferred supplier for its future Airborne Early Warning & Control capability via GlobalEye, with plans to build at least 40 aircraft at Bombardier facilities over 15 years at an estimated cost exceeding $5 billion for six systems.

Earlier Saab Orders and Partnerships

On November 6, 2026, Saab signed a contract with Naval Group to deliver weapon control systems and sensors for four Swedish FDI frigates, valued at approximately SEK 2 billion, with deliveries scheduled between 2027 and 2034, news.cision.com reported. On November 10, 2026, Babcock and Saab Denmark signed a memorandum of understanding to explore integrating shipborne communications systems into future Arrowhead frigate designs, The Defense Post reported. On November 9, 2026, Saab said it is developing AI agents to handle tactical tasks on fighter aircraft, testing them to autonomously control a Gripen E in beyond-visual-range combat scenarios, The Defense Post reported.

Deliveries Through 2028

Deliveries under the Danish order will take place from 2026 to 2028, according to PR Newswire.
