The Swedish Defence Materiel Administration has signed a comprehensive 10-year Services Support Agreement (SSA) on behalf of the Swedish Armed Forces (SWEAF), following the recent acquisition of two Bombardier Global 6500 aircraft as part of their fleet modernization program.
The aircraft, which were recently delivered to the SWEAF, will perform a multi-role mission that includes head of state transport. The aircraft are enrolled in Bombardier’s Smart Services Defense program, which provides comprehensive cost coverage for parts, including landing gear and Auxiliary Power Unit (APU), labour, ground support equipment, engineering expertise, technical assistance, access to mobile response teams, and shipping costs. The SSA covers the two newly acquired Global 6500 aircraft and will allow SWEAF access to Bombardier’s 24/7 industry-leading service and support network, helping to ensure long-term mission readiness.
“This agreement reflects Bombardier’s commitment to delivering more than world-class aircraft – we deliver long-term operational confidence for defense and missionized customers around the world,” said Paul Sislian, Executive Vice President, Aircraft Sales and Aftermarket Services. “Through our Smart Services Defense program, the Swedish Armed Forces will benefit from seamless OEM support, enhanced readiness and predictable lifestyle costs, giving them the confidence to stay focused on the mission while we support their aircraft every step of the way.”
The Bombardier Global 6500 aircraft is a proven platform for government, defense, and specialized mission operators worldwide. Renowned for its performance, reliability and operational flexibility, the aircraft provides exceptional range, endurance and mission-system integration capability, making it well suited for a wide variety of defense and security applications.
Bombardier counts more than 100 locations around the world ready to serve and support all Learjet, Challenger and Global aircraft. With top rankings in both Aviation International News and Professional Pilot Product Support surveys in 2025, the company continues to set the standard for industry-leading service and support. The company remains committed to strengthening its capabilities in key strategic locations to support its global customer base.(1)
