Polish Air Navigation Services Agency (PANSA) selects  Saab to provide its advanced Digital Tower to Warsaw Modlin Airport with an operations centre located in Warsaw.

Warsaw Modlin Airport will be the first airport in Poland with the air traffic operated with a Digital Tower. The operations centre based in PANSA’s premises in Warsaw will enable remote traffic management during all Polish weather conditions. In the future, the solution can be expanded to additional airports in Poland.

“I am proud that PANSA is entrusting Saab to implement our Digital Tower solution at Warsaw Modlin Airport. For us, this is a journey to transform and digitalise air traffic services, and I look forward to join forces with our partner PANSA in Poland,” says Cecilia Larsson, CEO Saab Air Traffic Management AB.

"The implementation of the innovative Remote Tower opens a new chapter in air traffic management. It is not just a technological leap forward, but a real change in the way we think about the safety and efficiency of air operations. Thanks to this innovation, we provide air traffic controllers with tools that allow them to act faster and more precisely – regardless of conditions or location," says Magdalena Jaworska-Maćkowiak, PANSA CEO.

The solution is based on Saab’s latest Digital Tower Suite, including 4K cameras for day and night operations and the latest presentation functionalities for air traffic controllers. The airport will also receive a multilateration (MLAT) system to ensure surveillance tracking for all stages of flight providing increased all weather capability. Saab’s Digital Tower system enables integration with future technological advancements such as AI-based features and unmanned traffic management. With its proven track record in deploying digital or remote tower solutions worldwide, Saab continues to drive the evolution of digital air traffic control, enabling safer, more flexible, and efficient airport operations.
