Saab’s GlobalEye, also known as the Swing-Role Surveillance System, made its Dubai debut in 2019, but at that time the company hadn’t yet handed it over to its launch customer. This year the aircraft has appeared for the first time as an operational asset of the UAE Air Force and Air Defence. As well as one example in the static display, another took part in the opening day’s flypast.
