Saab has launched the Allied Mission System (AMS). It is a cloud-based software platform for monitoring and responding to activity in space. The company announced it on 20 October 2026.
— Almost everything we do relies on space in some way and we have designed our new AMS platform to give the user the capability to act in this highly congested and contested domain, says Andy Keough, Managing Director of Saab Australia.
AMS combines space domain awareness, mission management and command and control in one system. According to Saab, it fuses data from integrated sensors and third-party assets. It also runs automated analysis and provides decision support. Operators can use it to task systems, coordinate assets and manage missions.
Saab says the platform has an open, modular architecture. Its data services, mission services and applications can be developed separately. The company says this lets new technologies be integrated faster. AMS is also designed to connect with wider multi-domain operations ecosystems.
The system was designed and built in Australia for deployment worldwide. It will be offered as Software as a Service, and customers can tailor and expand it. Saab has not named any customers.
— Saab’s AMS demonstrates the advanced technologies being developed right here in South Australia, says Chris Picton, South Australian Minister for Defence and Space Industries.
