SAAB Gripen For Canada vs F35 - Who won?

Yesterday, the Government of #Canada officially announced that the two remaining competitors to replace the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) CF-18 Hornet are the Serve #Gripen and the Lockheed Martin F-35.

Just a few days ago, the Government of Canada notified Boeing that the F / A-18 E / F Super Hornet was out of the bidding process for "not meeting the requirements." And yesterday, after evaluating the proposals submitted, a press release was issued informing the two bidders that they would remain eligible under the Future Fighter Capability Project (FFCP) competitive procurement process.

Swedish Government-SAABAB (publ)-Diehl Defense GmbH & Co. Aviation studies with KG, MBDA UK Ltd., and RAFAEL Advanced Defense Systems Ltd.
US Government-Lockheed Martin Corporation (Lockheed Martin Airlines) and Pratt & Whitney.

The proposal was rigorously evaluated for capacity, cost, and economic benefit factors. The assessment also included an economic impact assessment.

In the coming weeks, Canada will complete the next step in the process. This may include the start of final negotiations with the highest ranked bidder, or the start of a competitive dialogue with the remaining two bidders, based on further analysis of the remaining two bids. There is an opportunity to improve their suggestions.

What's interesting is how disjointed the competitors are. On the one hand, Saab's proposal to replace the CF-18 with the 88 Gripen E / F is a lightweight single-engine 4.5 generation, rugged, modern, low-cost aircraft. Meanwhile, the F-35, the only fifth-generation fighter currently on the export market.

The technical advantage is clearly on the product side of Lockheed Martin. In particular, Canada will be offered the future Block 4, a more advanced version than the current F-35 model, which the USAF has been waiting for. The features promised since the start of the program will fix many of the shortcomings it has suffered so far.

The strength of Saab's Gripen proposal to Canada lies in its technology transfer and extensive offset program, including the establishment of two aerospace centers in Canada.

The Government of Canada must decide which Air Force and aerospace model it wants for its future: greater independence and autonomy from the United States, or deeper continents and NATO allies. Is it an integration? The real challenge is deciding which of the two solutions will bring the greatest benefits to Canada in the long run.

The winner of the competition will be announced in 2022 and the first new fighter will arrive in 2025. Meanwhile, the Royal Canadian Air Force will upgrade some of its CF-18s with AESA radar to maintain minimal up-to-date operational capabilities until then. Mid 10 years.
