Saab Receives RBS 70 NG Order from the Brazilian Army

Second country to opt for the RBS 70 NG

 

Saab signed a contract with the Brazilian Army for deliveries of RBS 70 NG, the latest generation of the RBS 70 man-portable air defence system. This is the second country to opt for the RBS 70 NG with the Armed Forces of the Czech Republic ordering 16 systems at SEK365 million in December.

In addition to the RBS 70 NG system, the order also includes training systems, camouflage systems and other associated equipment. This is the Brazilian Army’s first order of the latest RBS 70 NG version and marks a significant upgrade to their air defence capability. Their existing RBS 70 inventory has been in service with the Brazilian Army since 2014. The system had a big role in 2016 as it was a part of the protection of the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

We welcome the Brazilian Army as our latest customer for the RBS 70 NG. We see their decision to continue to select us as clear proof of their confidence in Saab’s state of the art air defence solution. The RBS 70 NG offers a day/night capability, unjammable laser guidance and an automatic target tracker that ensures the missile hits its target,” says Görgen Johansson, Head of Saab business area Dynamics.
