  • Technical Supplements
    Technical Supplements S1 The IG JAS Investment In this Technical Supplement the JAS 39 Gripen product concept is outlined, the procurement process documented, the Industry Group IG JAS presented and the critical role of the competent public procurement agency, the FMV, highlighted. S1.1 The Procurement of the JAS 39 Gripen Aircraft with Swing-Role Capabilities The JAS 39 Gripen multirole combat aircraft (J stands for fighter, A for Attack and S for Surveillance/reconnaissance) is a fourth generation aircraft that entered operational service in 1997. It replaced the Viggen, the last of which was taken out of service in 2006. JAS 39 Gripen is a combat aircraft with swing-role capabilities that can change mission in flight. This swing-role capability was unique when Gripen was launched but has later been introduced on the French Rafale and the Eurofighter. Other competing multirole aircraft first have to land to reconfigure its information, guidance, and weapons systems for a new role. Gripen was the first “unstable” aircraft in the world which meant that in order for the aircraft to be stable at all speeds and in all maneuvers many more navigation surfaces are needed than the pilot can possibly control himself to minimize air friction at each moment. He needs incredibly sophisticated computer systems support to maneuver the aircraft effectively and safely. Competing fourth generation combat aircraft are F-35/JSF (the USA, not yet (2009) delivered to market), the Eurofighter Typhoon (the UK, etc.) and Rafale (Dassault, France). JAS 39 Gripen also competes with upgraded versions of the third generation aircraft of Lockheed Martin F-16 (the USA, first delivered in 1978), Boeing F/A18 Hornet (the USA, first delivered in 1983), Dassault Mirage 2000 (France, first delivered in 1983), and Mig-29 (the former Soviet Union, first delivered in 1977).

This proposed AD was prompted by a report of inadvertently reversed connections of the outboard and inboard channel harnesses of the wheel speed transducers in the main landing gear (MLG) wheel axles. This proposed AD would require an inspection for correct installation of the MLG anti-skid system harnesses and corrective actions if necessary, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which will be incorporated by reference.

Box 600 SE 40530 Gothenburg, Sweden All rights reserved No part of this master thesis may be reproduced without prior written permission from the authors Acknowledgements First of all, we would like to thank our supervisor Evangelos Bourelos for his patience and effort in providing us with meaningful advice throughout these months of intense research. We would also like to express our appreciation and gratitude towards all our respondents who have allocated their valuable time to help us interpret this interesting case. Your passion, knowledge and commitment guided us through this journey, and we have enjoyed every single day of it. Finally, we would like to thank our peer students and all the people close to us for your support during our years of university studies. Without you, this would not have been possible. ABSTRACT This master thesis is addressing the case of Saab Automobile AB, creating a full historical reconstruction using primarily extensive quotes derived from semi-structured interviews with former Saab employees and other relevant actors. The aim is to depict and discuss the roots behind the company’s historically unique capabilities and its trajectory towards failure, together with the influence of General Motors’ ownership in this detrimental process.

  • Saab Kör Vidare En Studie Om Hur Varumärket Uppfattas Idag
    Uppsala Universitet Företagsekonomiska Institutionen Kandidatuppsats HT12 Inlämningsdatum: 17 januari 2013 Handledare: Peter Thilenius Saab kör vidare En studie om hur varumärket uppfattas idag Författare: Sam Ekman Jessica Winberg Sammanfattning Saab är ett varumärke som delas av två olika företag, försvars- och säkerhetskoncernen Saab AB och personbilstillverkaren Saab Automobile, idag ägt av NEVS, National Electric Vehicle Sweden AB. Här finns en potentiell problematik då två separata företag delar samma varumärkesnamn och kan ha olika strategier för hur varumärkesarbetet bör fortgå. Syftet med uppsatsen är att beskriva hur varumärket Saab uppfattas idag vilket har undersökts genom fokusgrupper och en enkätstudie. Studien utgår från konsumenters associationer och resultatet visar att Svenskt Tradition utgör en viktig del av varumärkesbilden. Överlag har Saab en bred, homogen och positiv varumärkesbild där varumärket Saab representerar båda de bolag som delar varumärkesnamnet. I kombination med en hög varumärkesmedvetenhet gör detta att Saab totalt sett är ett starkt varumärke med hög kännedom. En utmaning för framtida varumärkesarbete är att arbeta bort den association till Kris/Olönsamhet som görs och att stärka varumärkets koppling till Avancerad Teknik. Nyckelord: Saab, Saab Automobile, Saab AB, varumärkeskännedom, varumärkesmedvetenhet, varumärkesbild 2 Innehållsförteckning 1.
