Hungary has finalized the expansion of its Saab Gripen fleet, completing a modernization effort that strengthens both national air-defense capabilities and NATO operational readiness. The enlarged fleet provides greater flexibility for air policing, interception, reconnaissance, and precision-strike missions while enhancing interoperability with allied air forces. Equipped with advanced sensors, modern avionics, and a broad range of air-to-air and air-to-ground weapons, the Gripen remains one of Europe’s most capable multirole combat aircraft, delivering exceptional operational performance with high availability and cost efficiency.
