Saab
Receives ROV System From FMV for the Swedish Navy
Defence
and security company Saab has received an order from the Swedish Defence
Materiel Administration (FMV) for ten ROV systems (Remotely Operated
Vehicle), which will be deployed operationally for seabed surveys, inspections,
light underwater operations and recovery of objects. Saab will fulfil
the deliveries using the Seaeye Falcon system, which is being adapted
to meet FMV's specifications.

The systems, which will be delivered as stand-alone systems, will be
introduced and partially integrated aboard patrol boats and auxiliary
ships operated by the Swedish Navy.
"This is another
example of how Saab combines civil and military technology and adapts
it for the requirements and purposes stipulated by the military. Over
the years, we have developed and established unique expertise within
the field and we are delighted and proud of being able to deliver
the system to the customer," says Agneta Kammeby, Head of
the Underwater Systems business unit at Dynamics.
The systems will be delivered
within 12 months.
For the past ten years,
the Saab Seaeye Falcon has been the obvious choice for many of the
world's leading users of ROV systems for both civil and military purposes.
Falcon is a proven and highly qualified ROV and is available with
many advanced tools and customised accessories.
