BERLIN, June 14 (Reuters) – Germany plans to use a system made by Saab (SAABb.ST) as it aims to enable Eurofighter (AIR.PA) jets for a role in electronic warfare, according to a document seen by Reuters on Wednesday.

Saab’s mission-tested system meets German requirements most comprehensively, the defence ministry said in an information to parliament.

Spiegel magazine was first to report on the plans.
