National Innovation System of Sweden

The Swedish NIS recently underwent restructuring in order to reduce the number of agencies and clarify their mission.

NUTEK is Sweden’s central public authority for questions related to economic development.

NUTEK has been divided into;Swedish Business Development Agency

(NUTEK)Swedish Agency for Innovation Systems

(VINNOVA)Institute for Growth Studies (ITPS)

Missle System, RBS70

The RBS 70 man-portable air-defence missile system has acquired a first-class reputation based on its outstanding performance, unique unjammable laser-guided missile.

The system has been designed to be easy to use requires minimum personnel and logistic support, enabling it to be deployed and redeployed quickly and to have minimised reaction time.

Air defence does not necessarily mean large semi-stationary installations.

Technical features

Guidance method …………………...: Laser beam riding missile.

Effective range ……………………...…: 7,000 mHeight coverage ……………………...: 4,000 mDeployment time ………………….…: 30 sec Reloading time incl. new firing .:Less than 7 secFuze…………………………………………:Laser

proximity fuze with impact function. Disconnectable by operator.

Warhead ………………………………….:Combined with prefragmentation and shaped charge

28

Technical features

Kill probability……………: >90 % in the head on sector.

Radar …………………….……: Ericsson PS-70R Giraffe G/H-band radar.

Emplace/displace time..: 1 minSight ……………………………: 35 kgStand …………………………..: 25 kg Missile …………………………: 26.5 kg

29

Technical features

The operator receives instructions on the position of the target from a local SLT (combat-control terminal) which is about the size of a laptop.

 The SLT in turn receives information through an encoded radio broadcast made by either a radar station or some other information gathering source.

30

Technical features

When the target has been acquired by the operator he turns off the safety, which switches on the main laser and sends out an IFF(IFF (Identification Friend or Foe)  signal.If positive makes firing impossible. If the operator is confident that he has a good

track he fires. 

The missile then flies in the beam of the laser from the sight, adjusting its position constantly to stay within the beam.

Development of the missile of RBS 70

RBS 70 has been constantly updated and improvedThe first versions (Mk 0) had a short range and limited

kill capabilities.Mk 1 and Mk 2 followed shortlyThe latest development is the BOLIDE system.

The BOLIDE missile is an RBS 70 Mk 2 upgrade that is faster.

The BOLIDE has also a new warhead, which is ashaped charge with a pre-fragmented jacket.

The adaptable proximity fuse gives it full effectiveness against a wider variety of targets.

 New reprogrammable electronics gives it the possibility to engage attack cruise missiles.

34

Megatrends of RBS70

Propellant booster motor developed by Bofors. Propellant sustainer motor by BAE Systems.COND (Clip-On Night Device) by Bofors. (8 micron to

12 micron infrared band) QWIP (Quantum Well Infrared Photodetector)

thermal imaging technology by Saab Bofors.Ericsson PS-70R Giraffe G/H-band radar.

"A hostile target can be located visually by the RBS 70 missile operator or the target can be detected by a search radar."

Technologies in RBS 70

35

TLC of RBS

Low cost, love mainenance cost, mobility, radar technologies, laser beam riding missile and other high-tech systems gives RBS 70 long life missile system.

Cost-effective life-cycle support solutions.After heat-seeking missile, RBS 70’s laser

beam riding missile is the newest technology in its segment.

We can’t say a certain years of TLC but seems pretty long…

Global competition

Mistral Air Defense Missile System, FranceSaab Microwave System supported.Contact fuse and laser proximity fuse

Patriot Missile Air Defense System, USAHas bigger war headContact fuse and laser proximity fuse ( Saab bofor

co-operated)Almost all systems upgraded in same direction

after Germans invented it at the end of WWII and just some of them like RBS 70 and main competitor Patriot Missile system came forward.

39

Conclusion

Countries have developed their army with the new innovations to find solutions according to military needs or new upgrades to make their military staff more effective and efficent by the end of WWII.

Since Sweden is the most innovative country in EU they put the same performance in Millitary side of innovation and the future of swedish science seems bright with the help of private organizations like Saab Bofor…
