Striking performance for the multi-domain era
The naval battlespace is changing. Autonomous systems, faster threats and shorter decision cycles place new demands on how naval forces share information and coordinate action. The next generation 9LV is designed for this environment – from the littorals to the open sea, and across a distributed force of manned and unmanned resources.
At the heart of the next generation combat system solution is an adaptable architecture that connects information, systems and capabilities across the battlespace. Saab brings these elements together into a coherent combat system, helping crews and platforms work together while allowing the solution to evolve with future requirements.
The result is more than a collection of integrated equipment. It is a combat system built around the customer’s operational needs – today and throughout the platform’s service life.
Integrating capabilities
A successful combat system combines Saab solutions with systems and subsystems from other suppliers. The 9LV architecture supports integration across a wide range of capabilities, including:
- Surveillance and fire-control radars
- Surface-to-surface and surface-to-air missiles
- Naval guns of different calibres
- Anti-submarine warfare weapons and subsurface sensors
- Unmanned systems
- Radio communication systems
- Tactical data links and multi-link processing
A coherent combat system
The next generation 9LV Combat Management System (CMS) is a key part of Saab’s naval Combat System Solutions. It brings together information and capabilities across integrated systems and subsystems, helping create a coherent operational picture and support coordinated action.
Saab can deliver a complete Combat System Solution or integrate selected capabilities into a customer’s wider architecture. The open, hardware-agnostic approach supports different suppliers and configurations, while the system is designed for continuous development as technology and operational requirements change.
