This is the story behind SAAB RBS 70 NG


SAAB RBS 70 NG is not just a missile system. It is the expertise and dedication of a team with more than 50 years missile development and production experience.
The new accurate, reliable and flexible RBS 70 NG VSHORAD system with 24/7 all-target capability has been developed for any combat situation.
The creativity and ingenuity of the Saab people has created a world-leading air-defence system. The development studies started over 40 years ago, and by 1978 Generation 1 was in service. With an effective intercept range against incoming targets of 5 kilometres, and altitude coverage of more than 2,000 metres, it was a unique product. Its unjammable guidance with laser beam riding missile was one of the first military laser applications and ensured it could perform in cluttered environments. Our new accurate, reliable and flexible RBS 70 NG VSHORAD system with 24/7 all-target capability has been developed for any combat situation. Its modular design allows it to reuse all existing generations of RBS 70 missiles up to the new BOLIDE 4th generation all-target VSHORAD missile. With the BOLIDE missile the RBS 70 NG aims at the complete threat spectrum from fixed and rotary wing aircraft down to small targets such as cruise missiles and UAVs, out to a range of 9 kilometres and with altitude coverage in excess of 5,000 metres.
A new generation integrated sighting system, enhanced gunner aids, high precision, unbeatable range and unjammable laser guidance combine to produce a ground-based air-defence system with world-leading capabilities.
The RBS 70 NG is not just a missile system: it’s the expertise and dedication of a team with more than 50 years missile development and production experience. Their creativity and ingenuity has created a world-leading air-defence system.
With its modular concept and state-of-the-art technology the RBS 70 NG provides a highly flexible, scalable and long term solution to evolving GBAD requirements.
The NG sight has been specifically designed for a high degree of flexibility and modularity: in addition to the Man-Portable Air Defence System (MANPADS) configuration, the same NG sight unit can be used in remote-controlled or vehicle applications.
The modular design of the NG sight allows for integration into an almost unlimited number of vehicle types and for network integration and remote control.
New generation sight
The core of RBS 70 NG is the new generation sight module:
Integrated high resolution thermal imager allows for 24/7 capability.
Advanced cueing improves reaction times and target acquisition.
Auto-tracker assists the gunner during engagement, increasing the hit probability throughout the missile range.
Improved guidance further increases system performance both for manual and auto-tracker engagements.
Built-in video records for after-action review.
