https://www.janes.com/defence-news/news ... baleye-buySweden will procure the Saab GlobalEye airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) platform to replace its ageing Saab 340 Erieyes, the country’s defence minister disclosed on 16 February.
Speaking during a Saab media briefing on Finland’s HX fighter replacement programme, Peter Hultqvist, committed the Swedish Air Force (SwAF) to the GlobalEye for the first time, while noting opportunities for Finland should the Finnish Air Force (FinAF) select the platform alongside the Gripen E.
“There has been no formal Swedish decision on GlobalEye procurement, but that should be taken as our intent,” Hultqvist said. “GlobalEye is a very interesting alternative, and a Swedish product. In a formal way, we are not there yet.”
The minister’s comments came some four weeks after he laid out his government’s defence plans as part of a wider increase in national defence spending by more than 40% between 2021–25. In January, Hultqvist highlighted SwAF plans to replace its two Saab 340 Erieye platforms that have been in service since 2004. At that time, no details for a possible replacement were disclosed, though it was considered highly likely that it would be based on the GlobalEye that features the latest Erieye Extended Range radar technology.

Währe das nicht auch was für Österreich und wie wichtig sind solche Systeme generell?

Re: Schweden: Kauf neuer AEW&C-Flugzeuge Saab "GlobalEye"
Ich habe die Funktion der schwedischen SAAB 340 Erieye vor ein paar Monaten recherchiert und hier erläutert. In Österreich, mit einem kleinen Staatsgebiet, ohne Mitgliedschaft in einem Militärbündnis und ohne feindlich gesinnter militärischen Großmacht "vor der Haustüre", wäre der Aufwand so ein System zu betreiben, schwer zu rechtfertigen.

Dubai Airshow 2023: Saab GlobalEye could be jointly operated by Scandinavian countries
Bombardier Defense Delivers Seventh Global Aircraft for Saab’s GlobalEye Airborne Surveillance Solution (12. November 2023)
Finland, Sweden and Denmark have been engaging in discussions with Saab to potentially jointly operate the company’s GlobalEye Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) aircraft, a Saab official told Shephard at the Dubai Airshow 2023.
Sweden has ordered two GlobalEyes under a US$710 million deal. Deliveries have been slated for 2027 and the contract included a potential extension for two more aircraft.
‘It comes down to the Swedish Defence Force to make that choice [about the extension], but we are having discussions with the neighbouring countries in Scandinavian – Finland and Denmark –, to see whether scaling up from two or more aircraft in the region could be part of the equation in the region,’ said Tomas Lundin, head of marketing and sales of AEW&C business at Saab.
When asked whether the countries involved could jointly use the same platforms, Lundin commented ‘Why not? That’s a good idea’. He emphasised, however, that the collaboration between the Scandinavian neighbours was only ‘aspirational’ at this point.
https://www.shephardmedia.com/news/air- ... countries/Lundin said Saab could deliver a GlobalEye in 36 months once it received the Global 6000 from Bombardier.
‘We do all the special missions adaptations in-house,’ he said, adding that the product was a ‘turnkey solution’ for Saab.
