The Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) has placed an order for the delivery of Saab’s new and advanced Carl-Gustaf M4 weapon system. Under the order, Saab will be responsible for carrying out the delivery of the latest version of the Carl-Gustaf weapon system to the Swedish Armed Forces this year.

Carl-Gustaf M4 is the latest version of the portable, shoulder-launched, multi-role weapon system that provides the customers with a wide range of engagement options. Launched in 2014, Carl-Gustaf M4 features all the effectiveness and versatility of the traditional Carl-Gustaf system. Featuring an improved and lightweight design, and weighing less than 7kg, the new version of the multi-purpose weapon system provides the armed forces with significant mobility enhancements.

With the current order from Sweden, the company has signed five contracts with five different countries since the launch of the new system.
