UAE Grows ISR Force

摘要

Swedish defence company Saab will supply two additional GlobalEye aircraft to the United Arab Emirates Air Force (UAEAF). The announcement was made on November 19 during the Dubai Airshow. Saab said it will now enter into a period of negotiations, having not yet signed the contract amendment or received a formal order, but the agreement does have an estimated cost of $1.08bn. If the air arm proceeds with this transaction, it will increase its total GlobalEye order from three to five.
