Sweden hastens Gripen deep-strike punch with Taurus missiles

Sweden will soon have the capability to conduct deep strikes far behind enemy lines, as the Gripen will be integrated with the German-made Taurus cruise missile earlier than planned, the Swedish air chief said.

“We have reprioritized and done work to ensure that our industry, FMV, and the Air Force’s work on this overlaps as much as possible, resulting in the original timeline shifting left as I am expecting us to be operational at a date considerably earlier than previously planned,” Maj. Gen. Jonas Wikman, the commander of the Swedish Air Force, told Defense News in an interview.

Given the sensitivity of the project, the official did not disclose the precise date of integration.

“The capability itself is very important because we haven’t had any deep-strike or offensive counter-air capabilities before. We could just put all of our money on defensive abilities, but now that is a huge shift for us,” he said.

He added that the Scandinavian country has received great support from Germany on all aspects of long-range offensive fires.

Sweden follows a unique approach by foregoing a traditional mid-life update to the Gripen, opting instead to inject new capabilities into the jet on a rolling basis, with larger upgrades slotted roughly every three years.

According to Wikman, this is possible for two main reasons: For one, Saab, as a national manufacturer, has the authority to orchestrate a tight industry ecosystem that allows for rapid technology adaption when operational requirements change.

In addition, Saab recently implemented a major avionics architecture change in the Gripen E fighter that isolates the flight-safety critical software from the one that runs combat missions. The separation makes it easier to install quick upgrades in combat effectiveness, according to company engineers.

Saab is looking to arm its Gripen fighter jets with a proven drone-killing rocket after studying the Ukraine war

Swedish defense prime Saab is exploring the Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System as a cheaper armament option for its JAS 39 Gripen fighters, firm executives told Business Insider this week.

"The APKWS is in interest because other platforms are now integrating 70mm guided rockets. So we are, of course, eyeing that capability now," Jussi Halmetoja, operations advisor for Saab's air domain, said at the Singapore Airshow.

Halmetoja said the company was looking at ways to integrate the weapons system, which uses a guided version of the Hydra 70mm rocket, onto its older Gripen C and latest Gripen E models.

He made the comments as he and Mikael Franzên, chief marketing officer for the Gripen program, discussed the company's observation from the Ukraine war that it needs more inexpensive weapons to counter uncrewed aerial systems.

"I mean, right now we are using very expensive weapons to kill very cheap drones," Franzén said of traditional Western air combat.

He added that Saab is hoping to potentially equip the Gripen with systems that can fit multiple munitions onto a single hardpoint.

"If you can have four or 10 on each hardpoint, then you can kill a lot more drones," Franzên said.

knappe 5,5 Mrd Euros für ein 48 Gripen e/f Paket? Nicer Preis, kömma richtig protzen mit unseren 15 abgespeckten T1 Typhoons, die EOL sind und grob 2 Mrd gekostet haben ...

mit unseren 15 abgespeckten T1 Typhoons, die EOL sind und grob 2 Mrd gekostet haben ...

Es waren ca. 1,709 Mrd. EUR:

• Ursprünglicher Kaufpreis: 1,959 Mrd. EUR
  - Abbestellungen: 307 Mio. EUR
  + Abbestellungskosten/"Systemänderung": 57 Mio. EUR
  Neuer Kaufpreis: 1,709 Mrd. EUR

• Präzisierung der Kaufpreisreduktion:
  
  Rückzahlung von 250,108 Mio. EUR (Im Bericht über die Follow-up-Überprüfung des Rechnungshofs werden nur grob 250 Mio. EUR [307 - 57 = 250] genannt.)
  • 239,71 Mio. EUR an BMLV (Im Bundesrechnungsabschluss 2009 wurden 232,55 Mio. EUR als Einnahme verbucht. Im Bundesrechnungsabschluss 2010 kam es zu einer Aufwandsberichtigung auf 239,71 Mio. EUR.)
  • 10,398 Mio. EUR als Gebühr an BMF

Nach heutiger Kaufkraft wären das immer noch mindestens 2,7 Mrd. EUR. Macht das österreichische Gesamtbild, was das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis betrifft, leider auch nicht besser.

Danke, theoderich; wobei mich weniger Preis devastiert, sondern das, was daraus gemacht wurde, aber das Fassl müssen wir ja nicht mehr aufmachen, es is wies is

Vielleicht sollt ma uns an die Aserbaidschanis anhängen, was dann letzte Preis :-) Könnt die Tannerin als „Airbus wird mich noch kennenlernen“ verkaufen, wenns die ausgesupporteten T1er retourpostelt
