In place of the long-delayed, heavy and expensive F-35, the U. S. military has a better alternative, the Saab Gripen multi-role fighter aircraft. The F-35 is the world's largest weapons program, but it has attracted little in-depth analysis to date, apart from the Pentagon Director of Operational Test and Evaluation reports which, year after year, point out the aircraft's show-stopping failings and shortcomings. Becuase we are all paying for it, American Gripen was written to provide the buying public a complete understanding of the F-35's whys and wherefores in the context of military aviation. It is a call to action. We will all be much safer when the F-35 program is dead an buried.
