We hold 17 contracts, tenders and notices with Sweden as the buyer. For the armed forces, the tenders come from the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV). Police drones are bought by the Swedish Police Authority, and the Swedish Coast Guard buys its own.
The Swedish Police Authority buys drones through framework agreements, and has opened some of them to other authorities as well. Once a framework is awarded, orders are called off from it, so its tender is the moment to get in. The Coast Guard has tendered its own drone framework with a single supplier, covering units, upgrades, training and spare parts.
Police buying also crosses the border: the Swedish Police Authority and the Coast Guard have taken part in a drone framework run by Norwegian Police Shared Services, with a separate agreement for each country.
For the armed forces, FMV has consulted the market on non-kinetic counter-drone systems, bought aerial targets for the Vidsel test range, and tendered portable autonomous underwater vehicles for mine countermeasures. Sweden is a partner in the EU PESCO maritime unmanned anti-submarine project.
Outside defence, grid operators such as Svenska kraftnät, Luleå Energi Elnät and PiteEnergi have bought drone inspection of power lines as a service. For the rest of the region, see Nordic drone procurement. Sweden has joined the Drone Coalition for Ukraine.
