No doubt Saab is busy with producing a sort of mini-AWACS on 2000 and 340 basis, however this is irrelevant to building of new aircraft. Vice versa Saab is cashing on hi-tech aviation related technologies, which is everything else than aircraft production (same model was successfully adopted earlier by BAE Systems). If you visit their facility at Linkoping, their hangars are full of airframes undergoing military conversion. But this has nothing to do with aircraft production.
