The leader of the defence commitee has been in all the news media today. It seems to me that it's just a way of hardening the objections to the Level 3 agreement the Commitee put forward during their visit to the US some weeks ago. A conservative party MP goes as far as to call it a "badly hidden tactical game". (The leader of the defence commitee is from the social democrats)

However.....the Gripen has been dropped from the deciscion process several years ago, because it does not fit requirement.
(At least not the 100 used ones the SWAF is trying to flog)
Eurofighter on the other hand, which is still in the race have allocated a lot of work to the norwegian industry.

Time will tell.......
