The UK and French navies are the launch customers for the modular Multi-Shot Mine Neutralisation System.
Saab will deliver mine identification and disposal systems operated from USVs, after Thales selected the Saab Multi-Shot Mine Neutralisation System (MuMNS) for the UK/French Maritime Mine Counter Measures (MMCM) programme.
Deliveries under an SEK300 million ($36.5 million) order will take place in 2022, Saab announced on 8 January. The order was placed in Q4 2020.
The UK and French navies are the launch customers for the modular MuMNS.
‘It’s a great success to deliver capabilities that enable these navies to perform safer and more efficient Mine Countermeasures operations, since the operator can neutralise multiple sea mines from a safe distance,’ said Görgen Johansson, head of the Saab Dynamics business area.
