The Saab JAS 39 Gripen, also known as the Griffin, is a lightweight multirole fighter aircraft designed by the Swedish aerospace company Saab. It is manufactured and marketed by Gripen International for use around the world. The aircraft is currently in service with several air forces including the Swedish Air Force, Czech Air Force, Hungarian Air Force, and South African Air Force, and has been ordered by the Royal Thai Air Force. A total of 236 Gripens have been ordered as of 2008. One notable feature of the Gripen fighter is its ability to take off and land on public roads, which was a key component of Sweden's war defense strategy during the Cold War era. The aircraft is designed to operate effectively even if air superiority is not present. During the Cold War, Swedish military planners anticipated that the country's defense forces could be overrun by enemy forces. To address this concern, Sweden dispersed its military stores throughout the country to maintain the ability to inflict damage on the enemy even if key installations were lost. As a result, one of the requirements for the Gripen fighter was that it should be able to land near these stores for quick maintenance and take off again without delay. This capability allows the aircraft to be refueled and rearmed in just ten minutes by a mobile ground crew operating out of a truck, enabling rapid redeployment for further sorties. In the post-Cold War era, this dispersed operation capability has proven highly valuable for peacekeeping missions worldwide, which has become the primary focus of the Swedish Armed Forces.
