STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Dec. 8 (UPI) -- The Swedish navy has contracted Saab to develop and produce torpedo integration systems for the branch's new A26 submarines.
The order supports Sweden's A26 program which aims to replace the country's aging fleet of Gotland-class submarines. Saab subsidiary Kockums is leading the vessel's development. Company officials say the ship will be fitted with the latest stealth technology and new weapon systems.
