LINKOPING, Sweden, June 29 (UPI) -- BAE Systems in Sweden has ordered sight and fire control systems from Saab for the upgrade and modernization of Norwegian army combat vehicles.
The contract for Saab's Universal Tank and Anti-Aircraft Sight systems, which include a virtual image display, is worth about $15.6 million. Saab said the units will be produced in Sweden and deliveries will begin in August and continue for a period of two years.
"The order proves that we are a leading provider of sight and fire-control system for tanks and combat vehicles," said Gunilla Fransson, head of Saab's Security and Defense Solutions unit. "We are proud of our cooperation and good relations with BAE Systems and are looking forward to further develop our combined offer."
The compact site and fire control system will be installed on Norway's CV9030N armored combat vehicles. It features a micro-display and magnifying optics.
