HAL's light helicopter Dhruv uses SAAB manufactured airborne electronic warfare system. Now SAAB wants to set up a JV with HAL to manufacture these system and export them to other countries.
As per regulation SAAB will hold 26 percent in this JV. It plans on closing down its manufacturing unit in South Africa and moving it to India after the contract is finalized. It plans on opening an R&D center and hiring 300 engineers over five years.
"Svenska Aeroplan AB (aktiebolag)" (Swedish for "Swedish Aeroplane Company Limited") (SAAB) was founded in 1937 in Trollhättan,with the merger of SAAB and Linköping based ASJA. The headquarters moved to Linköping. The style "Saab" replaced "SAAB" around 1950.
Originally manufacturing aeroplanes, the company sought ways in which to diversify its business and in the late 1940s began manufacturing cars. The Saab Automobile division was based in Trollhättan. The first car was the Saab 92001 on 10 June 1947. The company soon developed a reputation for safe and reliable cars, with a notable competition history.
In 1995 Saab Military Aircraft and British Aerospace (now BAE Systems) formed the joint venture company Saab-BAe Gripen AB, to manufacture, market and support Gripen internationally. This co-operation was extended in 2001 with the formation of Gripen International for the same purpose.
