Slater Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I didn't see it mentioned in the article, but does anyone know if these will be the new E/F variants or just refurbished early models? http://www.defensenews.com/articles/bulgaria-opts-for-swedish-gripen-combat-jets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham T Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Well the article says "new" but whether that's "new build" or just new to Bulgaria isn't clear. Price must have been good to win out against pre-owned F16s & Typhoons though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upnorth Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 (edited) I have to say I'm surprised, given the extensive defense deals and cooperation between Bulgaria and the US in recent years, I was sure we'd see Bulgaria follow suit with Romania and buy up some used Vipers from somewhere.
