Tactical Communications Group (TCG) and Saab yesterday said they’ve signed a Letter of Intent to collaborate more closely to expand their market share in a new and existing defense market.
Under the agreement, the companies intend to more closely collaborate on technical, marketing and business development initiatives designed to quickly bring innovative new C4I solutions to market, the firms said in a statement. These solutions will leverage Saab’s command and control products and capabilities with TCG’s comprehensive tactical data link solutions, enabling both companies to continue to expand market share in new and existing defense market segments globally.
“Tactical data link capabilities are increasingly becoming core to many offerings in our broad product portfolio, and we are pleased to announce this agreement and to work more closely with TCG in bringing unique, differentiated and cost-effective solutions to the global defense marketplace,” said Mikael Olsson, vice president, Marketing and Sales, C4I Solutions, Saab Security and Defence Solutions.
TCG President and CEO Edward Durkin said: “We are very excited to expand our relationship with Saab, and look forward to collaborating extensively with them in bringing new air, naval and land product offerings to market globally, leveraging the considerable capabilities of TCG’s LinkPRO data link processing engine, combined with Saab’s superior C2 system offerings.
Martin Vobora, senior director, Marketing and Sales, C4I Solutions, Saab Security and Defence Solutions, said: “With extensive experience in competing tactical data link solutions over many years, and having enjoyed real market success with TCG’s LinkPRO solution working with Saab’s Air C4I systems in many countries throughout Europe, Asia Pacific and the Middle East, we have now made the decision to work even more closely with TCG.
