Washington – The U.S. Navy has selected Saab Inc. for a $37.1 million contract to supply three new air traffic control radar systems for the Navy’s nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and amphibious assault ships.
The radars, the U.S. version of Saab’s Sea Giraffe radar system, will be manufactured and tested at Saab’s North American headquarters in East Syracuse.
December 2022. The
Navy had previously selected Saab, a Swedish defense contractor, to begin low-rate, initial production of the radars in
East Syracuse. The systems will eventually serve as the primary air traffic radar for the Navy’s nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and amphibious ships with large decks. A Saab spokesperson said the contract will help sustain existing jobs at the company’s growing facilities in
East Syracuse.
