Thailand plans to buy Saab Gripen jets, potentially straining ties with the US.
Thailand plans to buy four Swedish-made Saab Gripen fighter jets for $500 million, with plans to acquire a total of 12 over 10 years, to replace its older F-16 jets.
The decision favors the Gripen over US-made F-16s, though the US had earlier declined a sale of F-35 jets due to various concerns.
The procurement order will be submitted to the Thai cabinet in July, with final approval expected by August.
This move could complicate Thailand's efforts to secure a tariff deal with the US.
