With sensor threats constantly evolving, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for armed forces to act without being observed. Saab is responding by developing camouflage with sophisticated – and surprising – features.

With a decision on who will supply India’s new very-short-range air-defence (VSHORAD) system expected by the end of the year, Saab is fully prepared to deliver.
