Saab and Varjo Technologies are developing new low-cost, high-resolution mixed-reality tech for flight simulators to train fighter pilots. Called Bionic Display, it cuts the computing power required by taking advantage of the way the human eye works.

Boeing has spliced together the fore and aft sections of the first Boeing-Saab T-7A Red Hawk prototype advanced jet trainer in record time. Despite the two sections being built 4,500 miles apart, they were matched and joined in under 30 minutes.

Saab has flown a 3D-printed replacement part on the exterior of a Gripen fighter jet for the first time on a test flight at Linköping, Sweden, potentially paving the way for printed parts to be used to make battlefield repairs.

Boeing's T-7A Red Hawk Advanced trainer has passed another milestone, with a test prototype traveling upside down for the first time, completing more than a dozen inverted flights with maximum afterburners.

At next week's Euronaval exhibition in Paris, Saab will be unveiling the latest version of its Lightweight Torpedo (SLWT). Already ordered by Sweden and Finland, the compact submarine hunter/killer weapon is designed to be launched from a variety of sea and air platforms.

Saab's latest military aircraft, the GlobalEye Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) system, completed its maiden flight on Thursday with Magnus Fredriksson, Saab Experimental Test Pilot, at the controls.

Saab's next generation fighter jet took another step toward operational status by breaking the sound barrier for the first time. The US$85 million Gripen E​ aircraft flew at speeds beyond Mach 1 (761 mph, 1,225 km/h) over the Baltic Sea on October 18 during flight trials.

Saab is covering both sides of aerial combat with its Gripen Aggressor fighter concept that is designed to play the part of enemy planes in pilot training. Making its public debut at DSEI 2017 in London, the Gripen C variant is designed to appeal to both the US Air Force and Britain's MoD.

Saab's next-generation fighter, the Gripen E, has taken to the skies for the first time. At 10:32 am CET on June 15, the prototype delta-wing multi-role fighter set out on its maiden flight from Linköping, Sweden​ with Saab test pilot Marcus Wandt at the controls for a 40-minute flight.

National Electric Vehicle Sweden, which purchased Saab's assets back in 2012, is using CES Asia to show its vision of autonomous commuting. Owning a car is out in this vision, and vehicles not only pick you up and drop you off autonomously, they change their interiors around your needs and whims.

Boeing's T-X single-engine fighter trainer airplane took to the skies for the first time today on a 55-minute flight to demonstrate the airworthiness of key systems.

Boeing with partner Saab took the wraps off their T-X military jet training aircraft in St. Louis. The single-engine is the focus of a major competition worth billions of dollars to replace the US Air Force's aging fleet of T-38 trainers.
