The contract that is in an amount that is not material to Elbit Systems, will be performed over a period of 34 months.

Elbit Systems Sweden will supply the Albatross CMS for the Spårö Class Mine Countermeasures (MCM) Vessels of the Royal Swedish Navy. Albatross is a scalable open architecture CMS that is based on the Company’s E-CIX TM platform.

Albatross CMS enables commanders and operators to receive a common operational picture correlating underwater detection and surface tracks, based on real-time data, live video streaming, and imagery data, thereby expanding the operational envelop, increasing flexibility, and enabling effective decision making during MCM missions.

The Styrsö class is a Swedish mine countermeasures vessel built from glass fiber. Among its intended missions are mine detection, mine hunting and patrolling. The ships are named after islands from four different archipelagos of Sweden.

In 2004 HMS Spårö and HMS Sturkö were modernized, pulling out some of their capability for traditional mine clearance in favour of extended human dive support, the modified vessels are occasionally called Spårö class.
