“The Dubai Airshow is a very important event for Saab and the Saab Middle East office. It gives our employees the opportunity to connect and meet with
our existing partners in the region, while also showcasing the latest technologies the company has available. As the leading event of its kind in the region, and through its substantial international delegations, the Dubai Airshow is a place for Saab to forge new relationships that could develop into strong business partnerships in the future,” says Saab’s Simon Carroll, president and general manager, Saab Middle East LLC.

Innovations In Air Traffic Management
Saab’s revolutionary Remote Tower concept promises a completely new approach to Air Traffic Management at airports.

Saab’s Per Ahl, VP traffic management, Europe, Greater Middle East and Africa and David Shomar, VP civil security Middle East and North Africa, will explain how our fully scalable system, can be applied at major international airports, contingency and ramp operations, as well as single regional airports or local airport clusters.
