Purchase Order SPE7L424P0901

The U.S. Department of Defense awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $3,666 to Saab Dynamics Aktiebolag, a Swedish-based defense manufacturer and subsidiary of global defense company Saab Aktiebolag, for a cocking piece and firing mechanism component. The contract was awarded on February 22, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of May 17, 2025, and carries no set-aside designation. Work will be performed entirely in Sweden. This purchase order represents a discrete component procurement supporting the broader portfolio of Man-Portable Anti-Armor Weapon Systems (MAAWS) that Saab Dynamics supplies to the U.S. military, including the Carl-Gustaf M3/E1 recoilless rifle and AT4 anti-tank weapon platforms.

This purchase order is issued under one of two significant Indefinite Delivery Contracts held by Saab Dynamics with the Department of Defense. The company maintains a $23.3 million single-award IDC with the Program Executive Office Soldier, effective April 2023 through April 2028, which authorizes procurement of spare parts, inspection tools, and components for Carl-Gustaf and MAAWS platforms. Saab Dynamics also holds a $308.5 million single-award IDC with the Program Executive Office Ammunition for AT4 weapon systems equipment, reflecting the Department of Defense's sustained operational requirement for advanced anti-armor capabilities across multiple military branches. The cocking piece procurement demonstrates the government's ongoing need to maintain inventory and sustain fielded weapon systems through component-level replenishment.
