Still in production (ending 2025) , tough, 4.5 gen all rounder – enough around with F35Cs replacing them, and a background for Top Gun III.
A decade ago, the plan was to scrap 40 Gripen C’s and use some of the parts to make Gripen E’s cheaper to build, but the decision was overturned after criticism. If politicians thought we didn’t need the planes, they should be available to send to Ukraine.
