Saab 9LV Combat Management System: Naval C4I for 100+ Warships
Saab’s 9LV Combat Management System is the neural centre of a modern warship — integrating air, surface and subsurface threat pictures, weapons control, sensor management and command decision support into a single coherent C4I platform. Built on Naval Open Architecture principles, it runs on more than 100 vessels across 15 navies. Four major contracts since 2021 — Germany, Australia, Poland and Colombia — confirm 9LV’s position as one of the world’s leading naval combat management systems.
