SAAB Starts Assembly of first Gripen E starts

Saab has started the assembly of the Gripen E. First to be constructed is the front fuselage of the first pre-production test aircraft 39-8.
The construction of the Gripen E begins with the manufacturing and assembly of all parts of the fuselage; the largest and most time consuming part of the airframe. These parts will then be joined together and assembled into a complete airframe. This is followed by an intensive construction period to install cables, mount systems, the outer shell and other equipment.
