Swedish Defense Manufacturer Introduces Drone Boat for Beyond Horizon Strikes
Saab has unveiled the Combat Boat 90 CX, a new speed assault boat designed for the Swedish Navy. The CB90CX is a drone boat that can operate entirely without a human crew on board and is promoted as a larger, heavier payload platform than the existing CB90 Next-Generation. The boat will be available in three configurations and is envisioned to play a key role in the Swedish Armed Forces’ Amphibious Battalion 2030 concept, a modernization program aimed at shifting the country’s coastal defense strategy towards a more mobile, dispersed maritime force. The craft is already under production, destined for the Swedish Navy as the launch customer, as reported by Breaking Defense.
