Denmark Relaunches Fighter Jet Competition



Denmark has restarted a competition to select a fighter jet to replace the Air Force’s fleet of F-16s and has reopened the door to a bid from Eurofighter with the Typhoon.

Boeing, Eurofighter, the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program office and Saab all received official notification via a letter Wednesday informing them that the competition, frozen in 2010 due to economic woes, was back on. The competition will see Boeing’s F/A-18 Super Hornet, the Eurofighter Typhoon, Lockheed Martin’s JSF and Saab Gripen battle for one of the biggest defense procurements ever undertaken by Denmark.
