I bet some of the people in Iceland will be Gripen about all that noise from the jets.

First time Sweden bases its Gripens in Iceland for a NATO tasking. A solid move for Arctic security.

Imagine joining NATO against the Russia threat and having to send your planes against an invasion of Greenland by the USA…

Is this all a distraction for something Putin is about to do? Pull Europe’s attention away from Ukraine for a few weeks?

Might this whole thing be a marketing stunt orchestrated by Lockheed Martin and Saab to see who actually has the best all round fight jet.

We might know if F35s can be bricked remotely soon. Not to mention friend vs foe confusion in their air defense mechanisms.
I hope this conflict doesn’t happen. If it does no nation will trust other nation for next 1000 years. Will be end of humanity.
