I was expecting a punch line. Like the Gripen is cheaper because you have to assemble it yourself. Or the active stealth features on the F-35 require a subscription.
I mean, there’s some truth to that. Gripen would be assembled in Canada, and the F-35 subscription price would be bending the knee to the bad guys.

Denmark produces 80+ parts on the F-35 jets.
Our representatives must follow the peoples’ voice when buying defense equipment.
The Gripen definitely will not have an American kill-switch on it.

Aren’t they both made redundant by drones? Why do we need a human inside the box when they can be in front of a screen far away?
No. There are many types of missions a drone can’t currently do.
