With tariffs hammering F-35 sales, I expect the next Eurofighter project will have a lot more resources. I wonder if Canada will get involved.

Sweden also offered to get us building our own Gripens totally locally. The page for the bid is even still up

I assume we already have pilots trained in flying the F-35 at this point, which sucks if we're never getting them, though.

Absolute bozo move to not go for this in retrospect. They need to give this a look again asap

If I had hair, I definitely would have been pulling it out at the time. It's not like this situation came out of nowhere, but normalcy bias won the day.
