The Kuwait National Guard has received automatic warning and reporting (AWR) system from Saab in 2015, which is a key part of the national CBRN centre.

The AWR system is capable of detecting, identifying, warning, monitoring and reporting CBRN hazards. It can be operated from fixed locations and carried by personnel or mounted on vehicles.

Using the system, operators will be able to make fast and accurate decisions to limit the effects of a CBRN attack.
