Can’t wait to see Germans imposing their heavy fighter doctrine to a state notoriously known for its light and flexible aircraft.
AirbusDS trying to grift Saab now.
Saab 6th gen: stealthier than su57, still can land on anything that is somewhat level and, for some reason, is still cheaper than some 4.5th gen
I am sure SAAB would happily build a „FCAS“ for Germany, Spain, etc if they footed the full bill. Dont think Sweden would be terribly interested considering the SwAFs proclivity towards lighter and more flexible aircraft.
With all the bonding recently I think if Sweden was to collaborate with anyone on a new airplane it could very well be France.
It is probably what Dassault wanted to achieve in the first place. The FCAS ecosystem will be somewhat standardised, but they produce two separate aircraft with a French national solution made exclusively by Dassault and an Airbus/Saab hybrid.
This way, they don’t have to deal with the notoriously unwilling Germans when it comes to exporting their plane into the Middle East.
I am just wondering if the Germans and Swedes with very different fighter doctrines will be compatible and how Spains problematic Harrier replacement will play into this.
Unrealistic. Germany and Sweden don’t have the same needs at all. Unless Saab is simply a contractor for a German plane that doesn’t involve the Swedish government, like Saab provides electronic warfare pods and chaff dispensers for the Typhoon today.
Europe = France, Germany and Spain now?
European only must be the most important thing for decades now!
