I am a bit surprised by this. I know it's an MOU and could lead to no where but announcements like this make me start believing we might actually get the Gripen E, but time will tell.
Agreed. Although not mentioned there could possibly be a Ukrainian link to this MOU - their pilots trained here. Gripen, unlike the bridge border crossing dispute with unfriendly Americans, looks better and better all the time.

I agree. I find it hard to believe an MOU like this would happen at all if the Government wasn't serious about the Gripen.

My goodness will I ever be thrilled if we get Gripens built in Canada.
By the same logic, though, the KSS III would have been selected by the Canadian government in light of the flurry of MOUs that Hanwha Ocean signed.
