The new expeditionary submarine 

It's a lot like that other Swedish-founded multinational design bureau, IKEA

I am not a arms dealer ... so why RU-vid recommended this to me ... or am i ?? 😐

Because swedish geography is teacherous and not in favor of giving swedes the geological advantage. Also, modularity means you can switch broken modules with brand new, undamaged modules, instead of replacing or scrapping the whole craft/vehicle altogether. It also has the benefits of being easily modified, so there's that.

@@catsfrommars CV 100 - by IKEA!

The Weapon Collection I actually admire them for outsourcing - they put away national pride to used only the best/most affordable components.

Subscribe to jiveturkey and wait, he will put out a sub brief soon

And Combat Boat 90, which is fucking awesome. If you like that sort of thing.

They could, they just couldn't make money building them. ;-)

An 80's Saab was so well built that my half brother went over a steep cliff falling roof first after a 9 meter.. or c.a 27foot drop. The only place that was not completely crushed was the area around the front seats. They had to cut him out but almost any other car and he'd been a total goner. I love uncle Saab. Respect.

FozWasHere Your profile image makes me sad 😓

SAAB automobile and SAAB Group are two wholly different companies. They have had nothing to do with each other since 1990 when SAAB automobile was sold.

L E M O N it’s sad censorship exists eh

I think RU-vid wants us to plan world domination so we can throw out article 13

SAAB has a division. SAAB AB (manages the airplanes) SAAB Auto (which already defunct) makes cars

If you own a Saab car, it must be a transformer in disguise

THEN YOU ARE FUCKING STUPID AND UNINFORMED!

@@Callsign_Prophet what is arty 13?

@mike force I think I remember one swedish sub defeating a carriergroup by it self. USA has it on lease from Sweden to work out how %&@%#&# to deal with it. 👊😎

@mike force hehe. Well if the carrier takes a permanent dive there is not much carrier left in that carrier escort group. You telling me you have not heard?

mike force Alright, both of you are idiots. It did happen. It was a military exercise that the US and Sweden participated in. BUT, where you’re right, is that in real life, the Carrier Strike Group won’t be limited to a small space for the games.

@mike force I'm not quite sure what we're disagreeing about. My takeaway from your comment was that you're denying that the test ever happened, which warranted my stupid comment to your side. A quick google search pulls up hundreds of results of people sh*tting on the US for letting our carrier get sunk. Now, the other guy you were arguing with was an idiot was well. I've seen the movie before. It's a great comedy, but as a full fledged documentary, nah. Read the book.

@mike force calling other people idiots does not make you smart.

Exactly, a country with a 10bn military budget can be extremely powerful if armed with Saab weapons. Just think of their advanced awacs aircraft

proud swede right here

Citation needed

Heretical.

I agree 👍🏻

@@jb76489 citation for what?

Yes, and you can only remove it if the gear is in reverse!

SAAB placed the key between seats because it woud be safer in an impact. So you dont get the key in your knee

Collins-class did not spiral out in cost. By 2006, A$5.071 billion had been spent to build the submarines (excluding the fast track program); after taking inflation into account, the project had run less than A$40 million over contract. When the fast track program is factored in, the Collins class cost just under 20% more than the inflation-adjusted contract value; a smaller increase than other contemporary defence projects. By todays standards these cost-overruns almost looks cheap - just compare F-35.

Pincer88 The Royal Netherlands Navy will acquire 4 submarines. The RNLN has stated that 4 subs is the minimum number it needs in order to always have at least 1 submarine fully operational. They count with 1 sub in maintenance, 1 sub just returning from a mission, 1 sub that is ‘working up’ / preparing for operational duties. And 1 sub at sea.

Pincer88 as a French , I would be glad if you bought the barracuda , French submarines have maintained French dissuasion needs all over the world with success and will continue for next decades . Still glad you buy subs , it is a great way to protect your waters ! 🇳🇱🇫🇷👊🏻

I hope Saab gets the orders as well. And not just to replace the Gotland and Walrus, but maybe the Upholder/Victoria as well. I also wish that the US and UK would consider supplementing their boats with SSKs. (Either A26 based or Scorpène-based.)

Don't be in denial, google algorithms know better.

@@useodyseeorbitchute9450 no further comments... 😈

Julius Drastrup There was a guy who took a woman on a tour...right?

Plenty of private subs out there. Though you guys are so far the only ones that has had a murder mystery on one.

oskado95 lmao, not rlly a mystery anymore though.

Anyone need 15 tons of heroin? Meet me in my sub on a beach of your choosing hahaha

Yeah it was something about a swedish reporter

This is a really bad joke!!! Maybe you're Danish and soon have a meeting with a girl

Desmond Bagley which one?

Look at my latest video. Jas 39 gripen flew by my house😎

@@thomaszhang3101 Im pretty sure SAAB doesnt build tanks, but they build ships (SAAB Kockums) and ofc they build the gripen

Saab bought Kockums in 2014 so it's a recent development. Kockums being into ship-yards. The Swedish MBTs are Leopard IIs so German, the CV 90 is a co-operation between Hägglunds and Bofors. Strv 103 (Stridsvagn = Battle wagon = battle tank) was made by Bofors but 81, 101, 101R, 102, 102R, 104, 105, 106 and Bärgningsvagn 81 (rescue wagon 81) was based on the British Centurion. Sweden has also bought Patria 8x8s from Finland in recent time. Before that we've got various military "moving people/equipment/battle" vehicles made by Hägglunds, Volvo and Scania. Archer (artillery) are made by Bofors. The bandkanon / tracked cannon was made by Bofors. So Sweden has built tanks but it haven't been SAAB who has been building them. Bofors is pretty large too. Actually it seem like what used to be Bofors (which got bought up by Celsius from Nobel) are now part of SAAB Dynamics (robots and light suppression weapons) and BAE Systems Bofors (firing tubes, medium and heavy caliber ammunition) where the later is part of BAE Systems Inc which are owned by BAE Systems Ltd. Long history. Kinda the first manufactured export from Sweden was cannons AFAIK. We had steel, ships and a military at that time so ..

Built cars aswell

hehe we Swedes arent only now getting into subs, we were the first in the world to fire a missle underwater.

Won't be ready till 2027

R&D.

The current Dutch submarines were not build by Saab or in Sweden but were an indigenous design build by the now defunct RDM. This video show shows a bid by Saab and Damen for the replacement of those submarines but it has not been decided yet whether these or one of the other two bids will be build.

Parking is going to be a nightmare.

baginatora just pop the e break

No, that material is used in the weldingprocess.

Submerged Arc Welding.

Mostly... Chinese over fishing near the coasts.

@@biscuitninja No that's the south americans

Clue: WWII history thoughts us. On 10 May 1940, the German army invaded the Netherlands. It was the start of five days of fighting that resulted in the occupation of the Netherlands. Following the fall of Poland, an amazed world watched tiny Finland, a nation of less than four million people, fight off 26 Russian divisions. In any possible conflict i.e. sphere of interests between super-powers, a smaller country may find itself drawn into conflict (despite itself say it want's to be neutral), it's always the aggressor who decides if it respect it or not. It's difficult to predict future flash-points -- but it's better to make the price high such that "borrowing" some land is an unattractive option or it become time consuming and does not give any tactical advantage.

Submarines not only deter hostile marine activities. They are quite good for signal intelligence - or countering other countries to have subs in front of your door - spying at you. Discrete surveillance of shipping routes. Transport of commandos... actually german subs at least WHERE active in the syria conflict to provide information to NATO and germany. Russia is using them in the black sea and mediterranian sea to spoof gps and by this making the US boys angry.

I am defending my wifes boyfriends refugee status.

It probably isnt, but the dutch government obviously prefers to have part of the manufacturing done in holland.

its modular, so its kindof what is happening.. sweden makes the parts they do good, and holland the parts they do good. Like the thyssenkrupp colab.. eventhough that ended with thyssenkrupp getting chased by military police xD I used to live right next to a thyssenkrupp storage.. EVERY night, wierd shit was going down there :D at first I thought it was a whore house of some sort, then I realized they were military/spies and thats why everything was so shady lol!

It’s the same deal as with SAAB Gripen. “If you buy from us, we let you take part in production.”

LostinPA - The hull electrification feature is also available for SAAB aircraft. To protect themselves from giant pterosaurs and hostile wing walkers ;)

First they need to have missiles for that. As long as they havent such things a vls makes no sense

Why would we even need a VLS?

Look into Google, type A26 attacksub there will be a picture of the export sub 3 times 6 vls for Thomahawk cruise missiles.

@@atelierbluefire That may be but it doesn't change the fact that Sweden has no need for a VLS

Maybe not today but with few wessels around we my need to support our own forces at a long distances!

My point is It's money that could've helped people in dire need but instead were tossed away on these wicked contraptions.

any north american car manufacturer will ruin eu manufacturer when they buy it, cause they don't know what quality is

Between them, GM and Ford wrecked a lot of famous brands. Luckily a few were saved - such as Volvo with Geely, JLR with Tata and now Opel/Vauxhall with Peugeot. Even Mazda are better without Ford's "guide". Shame about Saab cars.

Not many American manufacturing companies know what quality is. Almost everything they produce is crap. Especially their cars.

On an exercise recently, a Swedish submarine 'sank' your largest carrier. The sub was powered by a Stirling engine design. Not bad for an 'old' generation craft!

@@cicero2 Heard about it. But remember, those are only exercises mate.😉

@@patricklioneljonson2747 but the USN was so concerned, it requested a further year of trials with sub.

As if that had ANYTHING to do with this
