SAAB GRIPEN PARTICIPATES IN AXALP ! 

a

Dutch Aviation MEDIA 2012

AXALP EXERCISE 2012 SHOWED THE NEW SWISS FIGHTER/ATTACK PLANE: THE GRIPEN !
The SAAB Gripen NG was shown to the press at Emmen Airbase Switzerland. Aeronautica & Difesa collegue Nico Sgarlato was also there, dedicating a small article in Italian, below the page you find our Dutch and UK version.
Unfortunately it was a very rainy day, the number of invited international press was limited
Dutch Aviation Media was there to see the plane, though a lot was already published by us earlier (see this site) 
It's a very good plane and a well considered choice of the Swiss Airforce
Specialists and Swiss Armed Forces insiders gave information to the press

In the Swiss environment this is quite a new picture, also for the people overthere themselves !
So far....  Thanks to Nico Sgarlato for the contribution in Aeronautica & Difesa.

Dutch Aviation Media will participate in AXALP Exercises 2013 - Keep following us !!  

Our sincere thanks to Swiss Armed Forces, Mrs. Berchtold !
