And a logistic nightmare with parts and spares production located in like 8 countries...lose diplomatic ties with any of those countries (many of whom are located in NATO and the EU) and your basically f*cked, and forced to keep your fighters constantly in reserve.

See how manicured it is? Western export MIC in a nutshell, it's about looking good, not being capable. Sex sells.magnumcromagnon wrote:sepheronx wrote:An overpriced F-16 that is barely capable.

Plans for the joint production of Gripen NG fighters in Brazil
According to the magazine "Jane's Defense Weekly" in an article by Victor Barreira entitled "Brazil reveals the Gripen production schedule, Embraer's manufacturing role" with reference to the information provided to him by the Brazilian Air Force on October 5, 2017, the Brazilian side agreed with the Swedish group Saab AB the schedule of supplies and organization of joint production of the Saab JAS-39E / F Gripen NG fighter aircraft in the context of a contact for the purchase of 36 aircraft, concluded in October 2014 for a total of $ 5.4 billion.
The partner of Saab AB for the joint production of Gripen NG in Brazil will be Embraer, the Gripen NG production and integration and testing center will be established at the Embraer headquarters in Gavian Peixoto, São Paulo.
In total, Brazil ordered 28 single-seat JAS-39E fighters and eight two-seat JAS-39Fs (officially designated in the Brazilian Air Force F-39). Saab at its Swedish company in Linköping will produce 13 aircraft from this number, including 12 single and one double.
The first Saab should be built by one experienced JAS-39E aircraft (the first flight is scheduled for July 2019) and JAS-39F (first flight in October 2021), which will be used by the Brazilian side for testing and the certification process.
Then Saab will build 11 JAS-39E fighters, which must be transferred to the Brazilian side in October-November 2021.
After that, Saab will produce eight sets of JAS-39E fighter jets, which Brazilian engineers and workers are to be involved in the manufacture of. In total, more than 350 Brazilians will undergo training and training in this production program in Sweden until 2024. Then, these eight aircraft will be assembled from the machine kits on Embraer.
After that, Embraer itself at the plant in Gavian-Peixoto as part of the joint production should completely build 15 Gripen NG fighters - eight single-seat JAS-39E and seven two-seat JAS-39F fighters. The program of their production should be launched in June 2020, with the delivery of the Brazilian Air Force to the first JAS-39E aircraft completely Brazilian built in August 2022, and the first JAS-39F - in September 2023. The last JAS-39F is scheduled for delivery in November 2024.

Recall that the Brazilian Ministry of Defense in December 2013 announced the selection of the Saab JAS-39E / F Gripen NG as the winner of the tender for the supply of the Brazilian Air Force a new generation fighter under the F-X2 program. A contract worth SEK 39.3 billion ($ 5.4 billion) for the development and production of 36 aircraft (28 single-seat JAS-39Es and eight double-seat JAS-39Fs) was signed by the Brazilian Air Force command in October 2014.
Embraer is the Saab AB co-production partner for Gripen NG (which will receive the F-39 designation in the Brazilian Air Force) in Brazil; the production line and Gripen NG integration and testing center will be set up at Embraer's headquarters in Gavian Paixuot, São Paulo .
Under the terms of the agreement with the Brazilian side, finally agreed in 2017, Saab will manufacture 13 of 36 aircraft ordered by Brazil, including 12 single JAS-39E and one double JAS-39F, at its Swedish company in Linkoping.
The first Saabs were to be built on one of the experimental aircraft JAS-39E (it made its first flight on August 26, 2019) and JAS-39F (the first flight is planned for October 2021), which will be used by the Brazilian side for testing and certification process, and will be sent to Brazil only in 2024.
Then, Saab will build 11 JAS-39E fighters, which should be transferred to the Brazilian side in October-November 2021.
After that, Saab will manufacture eight engine kits for JAS-39E fighters, in the manufacture of which Brazilian engineers and workers sent to Sweden should take part. In total, over 350 Brazilians will undergo training and internships in Sweden under this production program until 2024. These eight planes will then be assembled from car kits at Embraer with delivery in 2022.
After that, Embraer itself at the plant in Gavian-Peixotu, as part of a joint production, should fully build 15 Gripen NG fighters - eight single JAS-39E and seven double JAS-39F. The program for their production should begin in June 2020, with the delivery of the Brazilian Air Force the first JAS-39E aircraft completely Brazilian built in August 2022, and the first JAS-39F - in September 2023. The latest JAS-39F is scheduled for delivery in November 2024.

Last Friday, the Brazilian Air Force's Saab F-39 Gripen E was officially unveiled. The link below presents an extensive and interesting article showing a timeline with all fighter aircraft already operated by the Brazilian Air Force, from 1941 to the present day. I read, enjoyed and share it here. I recommend reading.
