Canada Definitely Chooses the F35: Aircraft Supplier for Over 80 Years with Lockheed Martin | Saab Gripen disappointed
Lockheed Martin responded to a tender for the F-35 Lightning II for Canada's Future Fighter Capability Project. The F-35 is the most advanced and inexpensive fighter to replace the Canadian Air Force's CF-18 fleet.
We have supplied aircraft to the Royal Canadian Air Force for over 80 years and Lockheed Martin is proud of the F-35 Lightning II delivering the most advanced technological capabilities at ever lower cost to the taxpayer, delivering enormous economic benefits to the aerospace industry and Canada. ... ... defense industry. The F-35 enhances Canada's operational capabilities with our allies.
Canada's participation in the Joint Strike Fighter Program began in 1997, allowing the country to be part of a series of fighters that are recapitalizing the three fighter fleets of the United States, as well as many allied nations.
In a recent press conference with the Finnish government, Defense Force Logistics Director Kari Renko said the F-35 is generally the cheapest option, although Switzerland and Norway, for example, reported higher operating and maintenance costs than those included in the Finnish budget. According to Rengo, the number of overseas flights is not comparable to that of Finland, and Finland itself can have an impact on the amount of maintenance costs, including the number of flights from many countries that choose the F 35, which makes Canada necessarily committed to choosing the F 35.
Saab's offer in Canada, meanwhile, includes Gripen E fighters and includes an extensive industrial cooperation program. Saab also says that Saab has a good offering and is profitable compared to the F 35 which. The maintenance costs show how expensive a car is to operate, so it has to be said that it's a surprise and a disappointment, like when Finland chose the F 35.
