Saab Fareham: Business secretary opens new defence facility
Workers in Hampshire are working on the company’s 3D multi-mission radar, Giraffe 1X, and the all-electric subsea remotely operated vehicle, Seaeye SR20.
“This new campus is testament to Saab’s growth in the UK, reinforcing our long-term commitment to the UK’s defence,” Mr Johansson added.
“Thanks to our investment here we will deliver innovative technologies and products for our customers.”
Mr Reynolds told the BBC: “We should be very proud not only that we have some of this equipment in the field already but also that we have the innovation, the skills, workforce and technology to be developing this within the UK with a world-class company like Saab.”
