Saab and ICEYE Enhance Command-and-Control Capabilities with Advanced SAR
ICEYE’s SAR satellites provide high-resolution, all-weather, 24/7 radar imaging. Unlike optical satellites, they work in any light or weather. Saab’s C2 system will integrate ICEYE’s sub-meter SAR data, giving military forces continuous, detailed situational awareness across land, sea, and air.
Sweden’s Saab and Finland’s ICEYE, a global leader in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, announced on 5 March 2025 the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to integrate advanced space-based radar imaging into Saab’s command-and-control (C2) systems. This strategic cooperation is designed to enhance situational awareness, improve tactical decision-making, and expand long-range targeting capabilities for both defense and security applications.
Revolutionizing C2 with High-Resolution SAR Data
At the core of this partnership is ICEYE’s SAR satellite constellation, which provides persistent, all-weather, high-resolution radar imaging. Unlike traditional optical satellites, ICEYE’s SAR technology operates independently of daylight or weather conditions, delivering real-time intelligence 24/7. The integration of ICEYE’s sub-meter resolution SAR data into Saab’s C2 architecture will
