SAAB's Gripen fighter jet recently demonstrated its Mobile Short-Range Air Defense (MSHORAD) system.

Where the shooting was carried out in the presence of 15 national delegates, the company said in a press release on September 5, 2022.
The Swedish company said the system was able to identify, track and shoot multiple targets during the fire.
a total of five firings were carried out with the company's RBS 70 NG missiles.
Two of these are fired from the Mobile Firing Unit (MFU), mounted on the MARS-S330 mobility vehicle, and the remaining three in the man-portable air defense system. (MANPADS).
On the other hand, the entire MSHORAD system consists of Mobile Radar Units. These are also based on the Giraffe 1X radar, Mobile Firing Unit (MFU), based on RBS 70 NG missiles, and are all linked to GBAD SAAB Command And Control (C2).
"This successful firing proves that we have a fully interoperable mobile air defense solution."
This shooting highlights the value of a single supplier capable of delivering everything from radar to firing units, including the GBAD C2 solution,” said Stefan berg, Head of SAAB's Missile Systems business unit, in a press release.
Launching Military Watch Magazine, the Swedish Gripen has not been successful in selling for the last eight years.
