#Saab receives Carl Gustaf order from Japan

Saab has received an order from the Japan Self Defense Forces, JGSDF, for the supply of the man portable, multi role weapon system Carl Gustaf. The order includes over 300 systems and deliveries will take place in 2025.

Carl Gustaf is a man portable multi role weapon system that provides high tactical flexibility through its wide range of ammunition types. It is extremely light weight, and has established itself as the main shoulder launched weapon in many countries. It has been in use with the Japan Self Defense Forces since 1979.

“This order is further proof that our multi role weapon system Carl Gustaf meets the high standards of Japan Self Defense Forces, and we look forward to continuing to support and strengthen their capabilities”, says Görgen Johansson, head of Saab’s business area Dynamics.

Proven to deliver results on the battlefield, #Carl #Gustaf provides the effectiveness soldiers need. The wide range of ammunition types for Carl Gustaf makes it flexible and able to handle any situation, whether it is to defeat an armoured vehicle or structure, or illuminating the battlefield during night operations. 

The Carl Gustaf system has a long and distinguished history, which stretches back to 1948, and is now supplied to more than 40 countries around the world.
