Saab positions to meet Philippines combat aircraft requirement

Saab is positioning itself as an early contender to meet the Philippine Air Force's anticipated requirement to procure a multirole combat aircraft platform.
The Swedish group displayed its JAS 39 Gripen fighter aircraft at the inaugural Asian Defence, Security & Crisis Management exhibition held in Manila in mid-July.
Although the PAF has not yet formerly announced the MRCA programme, Saab is ready to meet the requirement with the Gripen aircraft.
