Canada on Friday said it had received three bids in a multibillion-dollar contest to supply the country with 88 new fighter jets, with a final contract to be awarded in 2022 and first delivery as early as 2025.

The proposals were from a Saab AB-led consortium, Lockheed Martin Corp with Pratt & Whitney, and a Boeing Co-led consortium, Public Services and Procurement Canada said in statement.

to build fleet of fighter jets in Canada

Saab's offer further ups the ante on the competition that will see the federal government purchase 88 new aircraft

For the Canadian program, Saab is hoping to follow the same process that helped it win a recent fighter jet competition in Brazil. The first batch of Gripen E fighter jets are being built in Sweden but the technology is then being transferred to Brazilian firms so they can assemble the remaining aircraft.

With emphasis in spirit towards the critical thought processes, and alternative perspectives practiced by the late legendary USAF Col. John Boyd, his distinguished colligues, and present day following.
