Saab Receives Order from Canada for the Carl-Gustaf M4 Weapon

Saab has signed a contract with the Government of Canada for the supply of the Carl-Gustaf M4 man-portable, multi-role weapon system.

This announcement coincides with Saab’s participation at CANSEC 2025, Canada’s largest defence and security trade show, taking place in Ottawa on May 28th and 29th.

The order, which includes the Carl-Gustaf M4 weapon and Fire Control Device (FCD) 558, further strengthens the long-standing relationship between Saab and Canada. With this acquisition, Canada joins a growing number of nations equipping their forces with the latest generation of the Carl-Gustaf system.

“This order is a clear example of Saab’s modern, combat-proven capability being in demand by our customers around the world. Canada is an important customer for Saab, and we are proud to continue supporting the Canadian Armed Forces with systems that enhance their operational effectiveness,” says Simon Carroll, President of Saab Canada.  

The Carl-Gustaf system is a globally trusted solution, used by more than 40 countries. Carl-Gustaf M4, the latest version of the system, features a lightweight design, integrated electronics, and compatibility with future intelligent sighting systems and programmable ammunition. It enables soldiers to respond quickly to a wide range of battlefield challenges including armour, structures, and personnel.
