Saab Secures Contract To Help Maintain Carl-Gustaf Anti-Armour Systems Sent To Australia

The initial four-year contract, which includes two two-year extension options, will see Saab deliver the maintenance, repair, and provision of spares of the 84mm Carl-Gustaf M4 recoilless rifle, as well as operator and maintainer training for Australian Defence Force personnel.

Saab will provide assured, agile, and timely provision of in-service support of the Carl-Gustaf M4, under the Short Range Anti-Armour Weapon System (SRAAW) support contract and drive growth through product roadmap updates and a framework for future acquisitions to enable capability enhancements.

Trusted by Australian troops for decades and supplied to more than 40 countries around the world, Saab’s Carl-Gustaf M4 is a man-portable, multi-role weapon system that allows dismounted soldiers to effectively manage multiple challenges on the modern battlefield.

“Demonstrated to deliver results on the battlefield, the Carl-Gustaf system, is a combat-proven capability that ensures the effectiveness our soldiers need,” said Saab Australia Managing Director Andy Keough CSC.
