The F-X2 project management group GPF-X2 has selected the offers after evaluating the aircraft based on technical, logistic and industrial inspections and test flights.
The next-generation Gripen aircraft is an evolved edition of the single-engine aircraft developed by SAAB. The F/A-18 Super Hornet and Rafale on other hand are twin-engine strike fighters currently in service with US and French forces, respectively.
The evaluation process for the final selection will continue until the end of June 2009.
