The Project Will Include a Training Service for FAB Pilots for Future Operations. The Installation of the Gripen E Fighter Jet Flight Simulation Equipment by Saab Marks Another Investment in the Domestic Market.

Aiming at the Brazilian market, Saab, the Swedish defense and security company, recently announced the installation of the first flight simulation equipment for the Gripen E fighter jet at the Anápolis Air Base in Goiás. This new development represents a significant advancement in the training of pilots from the Brazilian Air Force (FAB) who will operate the aircraft. With an investment of R$ 200 million, the simulation equipment was manufactured in Linköping, Sweden, and transported by ship to the port of Santos.

Saab has strong plans for the Brazilian market throughout 2023. It announced the installation of flight simulation equipment for the Gripen E fighter jet at the Anápolis Air Base in Goiás.

The Gripen E flight simulation equipment is considered one of the most advanced in the world, with the ability to simulate even air combat situations and bombings.

The installation of the Gripen E flight simulation equipment at the Anápolis Air Base is another step in the partnership between Brazil and Sweden in the development of the fighter jet.

Since it was chosen as the winner of the FAB tender in 2014, Saab has been closely collaborating with Brazilian companies to develop and produce the Gripen E in Brazil.

According to Lieutenant Colonel Aviator Gustavo Pascotto, commander of the 1st GDA, the advantages of the equipment are numerous for the project.

“From basic to advanced, flight simulation equipment is used in two stages, encompassing its entire spectrum of use,” he said.

Thus, the flight simulation of the Gripen E fighter jet for the Brazilian Air Force (FAB) at the Anápolis Air Base strengthens the relationship between Brazil and Saab.
