Clavister announced that the relationship between itself and BAE Systems Hägglunds has produced its first end-customer – a major Western European military organisation. The contract agreed between BAE Systems Hägglunds and said organisation will see mid-life upgrades of CV90s (combat vehicles 90) carried out between 2021– 2025. To Clavister, the deal is worth a minimum of 50 MSEK, potentially increasing to 90 MSEK, according to the requirements set out by the customer. These figures would represent Clavister’s largest deal to date. The CV90 is a family of tracked combat vehicles first developed in the 1980s to cope with the extreme Nordic environments. The current model (MkIV) is suitable for high-tempo combat situations as it’s designed for tactical and strategic mobility and survivability, with a high payload, air defence and anti-tank capabilities. It also possesses a wide range of armament options giving it flexible firepower which can be configured to match any combat or patrol situation. The latest versions come equipped with a NATO-standard electronic architecture – driving the need for cybersecurity capabilities.
