GRIPEN FOR BRAZIL

THE PERFECT MATCH

On selection, the worlds most advanced multi-role fighter would be made in Brazil. A major part of all Gripen development work would be the responsibility of Brazilian industry. Gripen technology produced in Brazil would not be produced anywhere else in the world, which means that Gripen systems made in Brazil would be fitted in every new Gripen fighter manufactured.

Partnership

COMAER and Brazilian industry would become partners with the Swedish Air Force and Saab in the design, development and integration of future technology programmes for the Gripen NG.

Early Brazilian involvement in the Gripen NG design and development will give the Brazilian Air Force and industry unrivalled access to all levels of technology now and for the future.

Offset

The proposal will deliver Offset equal to the contract value. The Offset programme will transfer unique and advanced technologies and know-how to appropriate Brazilian industrial and institutional parties with the objective of developing national capabilities.

Production and Maintenance

The commitment to Brazilian aerospace includes the option for manufacturing of Gripen NG parts and assemblies and Gripen NG Final assembly in Brazil.

The maintenance concept is tailored to meet the requirements and capabilities of the Brazilian Industry and the FAB through:

  • Establishment of a Gripen NG maintenance centre in Brazil ensuring national autonomy 
  • Extensive usage of existing Brazilian infra-structure securing cost savings and ensuring commonality

Transfer of Technology

The Transfer of Technology (ToT) programme will guarantee full involvement in future capability development and maximize Brazilian industrial autonomy through the transfer of unique and highly advanced competencies.

The ToT will include:

  • Design, development and integration of hardware, avionics, software and systems on the Gripen NG 
  • Transfer of Advanced Technologies and key High-Tech competencies for example Sensor Fusion, Low-Observability (LO) and Stealth.

Saab guarantees unrivalled access to all levels of technology, including full access to Gripen NG source codes.
