UK Orders More NLAW ATGMs From Saab

UK Orders More NLAW ATGMs From Saab

Our Bureau - : Dec 7, 2022 - : 10:02 pm

Saab received an order from the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence for the Next Generation Light Anti-Tank Weapon system (NLAW). Deliveries will take place between 2023-2026. 

The order value is approximately SEK 2.9 billion.

 “Demand is increasing for anti-tank systems such as NLAW. We look forward to further strengthening our close relationship with the UK and are proud to continue delivering our proven and trusted anti-tank capability,” says Saab’s President and CEO Micael Johansson.

The NLAW is a shoulder-launched, anti-tank guided missile system that attacks the tank from above.

NLAW combines the simplicity of light anti-armour weapons with the advantages of heavy, crew-operated guided missile systems. A single soldier can take out a heavily-protected modern main battle tank at ranges between 20 and 800 metres with the light weight ATGM.
