Amidst all the discussion about whether the Gripen is worth it, this is the reason why I believe the Canadian government really wants to go with it. It’s a one-time chance to get back into cutting-edge tech, and since we’re going to spend obscene amounts, might as well spend it on our youngest and brightest, whether it’s our people or industries.
Edit: Could also very well be a program we’d actually launch with Sweden and Germany (If we went with the South Koreans for the subs)

This has the potential to be Avro Arrow v2.0 if we play our cards right. The R&D and brain power that go along with it will be a welcome addition to our economy.

After they burned Brazil? I do not believe SAAB especially with other controversies that surround them. Our generals and pilots want F35 and nobody here is more certified to make that decision unless the generals have Reddit accounts for some reason.
