You are far out fishing... Three aircrafts were taken into consideration, Joint Strike Fighter, Eurofighter and JAS Gripen. Eurofighter bowed out of the process as they suspected the Joint Strike Fighter being favourized since Norway is one major contributor to this project - financial and with equipment.

However if Norway go for the JSF it will be a fairly modified version to meet the Norwegian specs, such as compatible trays for our own designed AA missile and break chute, just to mention two of the post on the list.

KJ - RnoAF has the latest modified versions of F16s fully operational to NATO standards.
