Saab startar produktion av kompositmaster till Finlands flotta

På tisdagen den 15 augusti hölls en ceremoni för att påbörja tillverkningen av de första av fyra master till Finlands nya fartyg på Saabs anläggning i Karlskrona.

On Tuesday, August 15th, Saab held a composite cutting ceremony at their Karlskrona site to mark the start of production for the first of four masts for the Finnish Navy's new ships. These masts are made of the same composite material used in the Swedish Visby-class corvettes, and Saab is a world-leading producer of this material.

“This was an important day and we are proud to be part of the work to strengthen the Finnish Navy's capabilities. We look forward to delivering our world-leading composite solutions and combat systems in close cooperation with our Finnish customer,” says Mats Wicksell, Senior Vice President and Head of Saab’s Business Area Kockums.
