BAE Systems: new CV90 order from the Swedish army


(CercleFinance.com) – BAE Systems has received a new order for 20 additional CV90 mortar systems for the Swedish army. Commissioning is scheduled for 2025.

The approximately $30 million contract was awarded to BAE Systems’ Swedish joint venture HB Utveckling AB. Production will take place at BAE Systems Hägglunds in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden.

Once deliveries are completed, the Swedish Army will operate 80 CV90 mortar vehicles in its fleet.

There are around 1,300 CV90s in service in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and the Netherlands. More recently, Slovakia and the Czech Republic have chosen the CV90 to replace their older infantry fighting vehicle fleets.
