Swiss upper house approves purchase of 22 JAS-39 Saab fighter jets

Switzerland's upper house voted in favour of buying 22 Gripen fighter jets from Swedish defence firm Saab on Wednesday, although the purchase may still face a popular vote.
Swiss lawmakers voted 27 to 17 to finance the $3.4 billion deal, which would replace the country's aging fleet of Northrop F-5 Tiger fighters with the Gripen jets.
