Saab Showcases Advanced Air and Defence Technologies at Dubai Airshow 2025

Saab will be exhibiting at the Dubai Airshow 2025, Dubai World Central, United Arab Emirates, from 17–21 November. Visit Saab’s stand #945 in the main exhibition hall to explore how the company’s innovations are making people and society safer.

Saab is displaying a range of advanced systems that provide operational air power superiority through force multipliers such as GlobalEye and the Gripen E fighter. Saab will also be participating in the Dubai International Air Chiefs’ Conference as a gold sponsor.

For the first time on its stand at Dubai, Saab will have a model of Gripen E. In a world where success and survivability are dictated by the ability to evolve, Gripen E is developed to counter and defeat advanced future threats.

Appearing at the show will be GlobalEye, the world’s most advanced AEW&C solution that operates as a strategic national asset in peace, crisis, and conflict. It first entered service with the UAE Air Force & Air Defence and brings ground-breaking capabilities that provide simultaneous air, maritime, and ground surveillance in one single solution.

Brought to market through cooperation with the UAE’s Tawazun Council for Defence Enablement, Coast Control Radar — a software-driven solution crucial to safeguarding waterways — and DeployNet, a secure communications system designed for military operations, are breakthrough products in their respective sectors. Visitors can learn more by enquiring at the Saab stand.

“Now more than ever, protecting the sovereignty of airspace is foremost in the minds of many. Saab’s expertise in airborne and ground systems that protect and defend national airspace are central to our Dubai Airshow presence. Our solutions contribute significantly to national security and will be very much part of our discussions with potential customers. We are committed to our partners in the region and look forward to meeting our customers and engaging with stakeholders from the UAE and beyond,” said Heléne Bittmann, Managing Director of Saab in the UAE.

The world-famous Giraffe 1X multifunctional, multi-mission radar will also make an appearance, where visitors can see how it helps create time to act, with simultaneous capabilities including air surveillance, ground-based air defence, and drone detection.

Visitors to the stand can also learn about Saab’s civil and military digital tower product family, including the modular, secure, and quick-to-deploy Deployable Digital Tower. This digital tower supports airstrip operations, can be mission-ready within an hour, and can be operated remotely from a secure location at a base or connected to a centralised facility hundreds of miles away — keeping deployed personnel safe.

Other solutions include Saab’s Arexis Electronic Warfare system for Gripen E and Eurofighter EK, as well as self-protection countermeasure systems to detect and counter hostile weapon systems.
