Canada will purchase a fleet of GlobalEye early warning aircraft from SAAB AB to monitor its Arctic territory. The decision rejects a competing bid from Boeing, whose E-7 Wedgetail has faced cost overruns and delays. The move signals a shift in Canadian defense procurement toward European partners and domestic manufacturing.
