Sweden (Gripen) in partnership with a Canadian company (Bombardier) to be built in Canada with the technology transfer to Canada . So, Canada can start work on the development of the next generation jets . Feds should also contribute to R&D on such development.
we can't just keep throwing tens of billions on new jets every 5 -10 years to keep up to date.
that's a perfect way to support Canadian aerospace and nobody would complain that BBd gets subsidized. BBd needs contracts and not the handouts with draconian conditions attached.
