Saab Receives U.S. Defense Order for AT4 and Carl-Gustaf Ammunition
Saab has secured a new order from the U.S. Department of Defense for AT4 systems and Carl-Gustaf ammunition. The contract is valued at over $104 million, with deliveries scheduled between 2024 and 2026.
Swedish defense and security company Saab has received a new order from the U.S. Department of Defense, expanding an existing framework agreement. The order is for AT4 systems and Carl-Gustaf ammunition and is valued at USD $104.9 million.
Deliveries are expected to take place between 2024 and 2026. This new order reinforces the U.S. military's continued reliance on Saab's portable weapon systems.
The AT4 is a shoulder-fired, single-shot, unguided recoilless anti-tank weapon, widely used by ground forces. The Carl-Gustaf is a multi-role, man-portable recoilless rifle system capable of firing various types of ammunition, including anti-armor and multi-role rounds.
Both systems have been a staple in U.S. military arsenals for decades, with continuous upgrades and ammunition purchases ensuring their operational relevance. The specific details of the order, beyond its value and timeframe, have not been disclosed by Saab.
