At the core of Saab’s proposal is the Bombardier Global 6000/6500 – a Canadian-made platform renowned for its long range, endurance, and high-altitude performance. Saab integrates this proven airframe with a suite of cutting-edge sensors, surveillance radars, and mission systems, offering the Canadian Armed Forces a multi-domain force multiplier that is operationally robust and cost-effective.

In close partnership with Bombardier, Saab’s GlobalEye supports Canadian economic and industrial interests by maximizing domestic content, generating high-value jobs, and enabling Canadian suppliers to join global defence supply chains.

- GlobalEye is a truly strategic asset – a multi-domain solution that enhances situational awareness and enables rapid decision-making across air, sea, and land, said Anders Carp, Deputy CEO of Saab. - With Bombardier’s world-class aircraft made here in Canada, and Saab’s legacy of innovation in radar and surveillance, this is a unique opportunity to strengthen both capability and industry.

Saab has a long track record of delivering AEW&C systems to NATO allies and trusted partners worldwide. GlobalEye is a fielded and fully operational solution, combining proven technology with modern adaptability to meet the demands of contemporary defence environments.
