Some 20 Danish politicians, including members of the parliamentary Defence Committee and Defence Minister Søren Gade, have visited Saab to gather more information about Gripen NG (Next Generation).
Discussions about capability, cost, and industrial cooperation were on the agenda.
“We can offer Denmark 48 Gripen NG at a fixed and guaranteed price, including all costs over the entire life cycle,†says Michael Olofsson, Campaign Director for Denmark.
Gripen NG is the very latest generation of Gripen, based on the proven C and D versions already in NATO use, but further enhanced and tailored specifically to suit future needs and demands.
“In addition to this capable and cost-effective system, Saab can also guarantee industrial cooperation with Danish industries worth 180 % of the contract value, securing thousands of Danish jobs,†adds Michael Olofsson. “Denmark can invest in Gripen secure in the knowledge that both small and large civil and military businesses will benefit from the investment.â€
