Saab has secured an order to produce and supply a man-portable, recoilless rifle platform to the U.S. Special Operations Command.
USSOCOM placed the order for the Carl-Gustaf weapon system through a framework contract it awarded to Saab in August 2014, Saab said Monday.
Saab expects to deliver the rifle system this year through 2016.
The rifle platform is also known as the Multi-Role Anti-Armor Anti-Personnel Weapon System in the U.S.
