Gripen Will Remain at the Leading Edge of Technology for at Least 30 Years

Gripen is a truly international weapon system incorporating the latest technology from a team of major defense industries. As the newest generation of fighter in service today, it has been designed to maintain operational superiority against present and future threats by providing spare system capacity to incorporate new sensors, avionics and weapons with ease.

The advanced design combined with a funded continuous technology insertion program, covering all major sensors, avionics, data communication, propulsion and self-protection systems, ensures Gripen will grow ahead of future threats to maintain and improve its operational superiority.

Sweden is committed to Gripen´s future. Export customers will also participate in Gripen´s long-term enhancement program, but - unlike other platforms - they are not solely dependant on their own finances to develop future enhancements. Gripen International, unlike other suppliers, includes all customers and operators in technical and support enhancement programs. Technology enhancements are developed and integrated in a planned time phased manner together with the operators. Together we can make a difference.
