Denmark has awarded Saab a 350-million-kronor ($34-million) contract to strengthen training involving CV90 vehicles, unmanned systems, and beyond-line-of-sight combat scenarios. Placed by the Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation, the order is scheduled for delivery from the end of 2026 through 2028. A key component is Saab’s Instrumented Laser Duel System for the CV90, which combines lasers and onboard instrumentation to replicate battlefield engagements without requiring crews to use live ammunition against each other. The package also introduces expanded training capabilities for drone operations and non-line-of-sight engagements, allowing troops to rehearse a wider range of battlefield threats. The procurement follows Denmark’s 680-million-Swedish-kronor ($63-million) Combat Training Centre order last year, which includes equipment deliveries through 2027 and support at four locations. That earlier package covers individual soldier and vehicle training systems, anti-tank and sniper simulators, communications equipment, and software for managing exercises and evaluating performance. Saab’s modular training centre can accommodate as many as 10,000 participants over a 40-by-40-kilometer (25-by-25-mile) training area, supporting large-scale, coordinated military exercises.
