Eyeing jet deal, Saab offers full tech transfer to India

[-BAJWA-]

What is in that Plane that is completely SAAB's own and if not then what is the meaning of TOT?

Saab Grippen is Sweden's Tejas. Every thing is so called "indigenous"

Saab's Offer for Gripen-E With 100% ToT Leaves India Unimpressed

As India prepares to issue $10 billion global tender for fighter jets, Sweden’s Saab has offered 100% ToT of the Gripen-E. However, experts note that 70% of the technology is borrowed and it is unlikely that the proprietors would allow Sweden to transfer those to India.

New Delhi (Sputnik) — A day after America's Lockheed Martin expressed its unwillingness to share its closely guarded technology for F-16 fighter jets with India, Swedish firm Saab has offered complete technology transfer if India awards it the $10 billion contract for the single-engine fighter aircraft — Gripen-E.

"Saab is committed to full technology transfer to India in connection with Indian procurement of the Gripen-E. We will build the world's most modern aerospace facility and ecosystem in India. We will abide by the terms of the Strategic Partnership that will be set by the government for the single-engine fighter aircraft program and will undertake complete transfer of technology to the chosen joint venture partner," Jan Widerstrom, Chairman, Saab India said in a statement.

However, beyond the rhetoric, there is a catch.

"Unfortunately, Saab doesn't own much of the critical technology that goes into the Gripen-E. Saab does not even own up to 30 percent of the aircraft's key technologies including the propulsion system and the ASEA radar. It would be a really big deal if Saab conciliates other original technology developers to transfer technology to India; which seems unlikely," Vijainder K Thakur, former squadron leader of Indian Air Force told Sputnik.

Swedish SAAB Partners With Adani to Produce Hundreds of Fighter Jets for India
Saab chose India's Adani Group, a new entrant in the field of defense aerospace, for collaboration this September with the aim of bagging India's single-engine fighter aircraft contract. In the beginning of this month, both partners hosted a supplier meeting in New Delhi creating an industrial ecosystem to develop and produce the Gripen in India.


"This was done in order to start shaping an ecosystem for the Gripen in India in preparation for the single-engine fighter selection process," Saab explained its reason behind organizing the summit.

I think its best offer for India and India can replace engine with any other country and radar with another one. This will give India future to do what ever they want to do like Pakistan is doing with JF17

If they allow that level of customization, which India will want down the line, it's a good deal.

That is what they said

LOL..... turns out that SAAB owns only 30% of the tech in their own aircraft.

You just YouTube gripen videos,they are the masters of propoganda. You can even see gripen defeating su35s in promo videos. Such ridiculous claims.

Brother in defensive mode chances are more in favor of defending team and they have full ground support for them and yes if even F35 detect in radar then it is a matter BVR missiles capabilities or SAM batteries effectiveness

Iraqis were in defensive mode against NATO, Argentines were in defensive mode in Falkland war( i mean they were defending the island captured from Brits,Brits were thousands of miles away from Falkland).

Are you still in 80's era? The reference you are giving is based on 80's tech

So,are you real? You are believing a publicity stunt by corporate in YouTube,which claims capable of defeating su35s in an air battle. Remember 35s are arguably the best fighter in service today after f22.

How? and also please explain how it is batter then F35 as well.

I said the best fighter in service today.

How can be a best fighter today is 4++ generation when we have two 5th generation fighters in operations mode? Even i accept your claim please give us proof that S35 is batter then new Gripen which also from same class in terms of generation.

Nobody can give a proof until and unless both pitted against,but we can look around similar results of past when an air superiority fighter pitted against a light/medium fighter,like f15 Vs rest of the fighter. I do believe that latest su30s are way better than 15 and 35s are much evolved than 30s.
Using logic,I don't find any chance for gripen against any air superiority fighter existing today.be it f15 or Sunday 30/35s. The monstrously powerful radars will see gripen much earlier and will be toasted.
