Thailand Defence Minister Phumtham Wechayachai has revealed that the Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) plans to move forward with its acquisition of Saab's JAS 39 E/F Gripen jets, reportedly expressing backing for the Swedish-made fighter.
As first reported by The Nation, the defence minister said he had “instructed the RTAF to carefully select the most effective fighter jets” and revealed that the government was in discussion with Saab about “potential benefits for the [RTAF], such as technology transfer”.
