named in public sources · no deployment on file
A deployment is recorded when a public source names both the customer and the robot, or the maker confirms it. Nothing here counts against Saab Group.
In Research, Saildrone, HEBI Robotics and NASA have deployment evidence on file.

Why Saab Group has been in the news, across 1 outlet, collected and classified independently, so a maker cannot add to it. It never changes a robot's RoboScore (the evidence half of the RoboIndex) and it can move a robot up a board by at most 15 points.
Safety reports
Switzerland sits outside the EU Safety Gate and we have found no national product-incident register covering robots. A blank record here is unmeasured.
