Also, I heard that some jets in the Swedish air force have stickers that say "My other Saab is a car."

Also, "stuck in neutral."

Kind of a shame the contract isn't going to US companies. Selling our fighters recoups a lot of the cost of the program. But it does lead to the ironic situation that our allies have better versions of our own hardware than we do.
