Multiple plants to produce submarines to fulfil Poland order, Saab CEO says

"We will absolutely parallelise production to increase capacity," he told Reuters on the sidelines of an annual security conference in Northern Sweden. He added that parts of the submarine would be manufactured at the plant in Landskrona.

Johansson also said maintenance, some upgrades and yearly controls would also be done at a shipyard in Poland.

"We will have two assets for that, one on the Swedish and one on the Polish side," he said.
