Canada weighs fighter jet options amid costly choice
Ottawa rejected Boeing F A 18 E F Super Hornets from replacement bids for CF 188 Hornets and narrowed to Saab Gripen and Lockheed Martin F 35 Lightning II. Costs cited range from 65 to 115 million per aircraft with Canada seeking 88 advanced multi role fighters. Canada argues alliance duties and NORAD NATO obligations justify the expenditure despite climate and spending concerns.
