Saab Group (originally Svenska Aeroplan AB, later SAAB and Saab AB; About this
sound listen (help�info)) is a Swedish aerospace and defence company, founded in
1937. From 1947 to 1990 it was the parent company of automobile manufacturer Saab
Automobile. Between 1968 and 1995 the company was in a merger with commercial
vehicle manufacturer Scania-Vabis, known as Saab-Scania. The two were de-merged in
1995 by the new owners, Investor AB. Despite the demerger, both Saab and Scania
share the right to use the griffin logo,[2] which originates from the coat of arms
of the Swedish region of Scania.[3]
