Saab has signed framework agreements with the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) relating to the Carl-Gustaf-M4 recoilless rifle and the AT4 anti-armour weapon, the company announced on 30 March 2023.

In addition the NSPA has placed call-off orders for the weapons with a total value of around SEK 350 M (EUR 31 M). A call-off order for Carl-Gustaf ammunition has deliveries planned for 2023-2025, while a call-off order for the AT4 has deliveries planned for 2023-2024.

The AT4 framework agreement will be valid until 2026, while the Carl-Gustaf agreement will be valid until 2027.

“We are proud that our combat solutions are making a difference for our customers,” Görgen Johansson, head of Saab’s Dynamics business area, was quoted as saying in a company press release. “These framework agreements will further strengthen our relations with NATO and facilitate the order process for Carl-Gustaf and AT4 for its members.”

As well as the Swedish armed forces, several NATO nations, including Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States, are already users of Saab recoilless rifles and anti-armour weapons.
