How come Turkey never gets such offers from Sweden?
Do I blow $500/year at IKEA for nothing?

Gripen is a great plane the problem is it uses American engines. Americans would easily embargo us what a shame.

Agreed, it's a shame. And the real tragedy is that despite all the hostile behavior from the US and despite getting kicked out of the F-35, we STILL seem to be counting on the GE's F110 engine for the first batch of TF-X MMUs. Just thinking about it makes me want to take a shower.
