The budget for the current iteration is said to be $2.2 billion which changes things. What there looking for is to acquire 36 next generation fighters for the Brazilian Air Force. Will Russia get this deal as well or will the French hold on. I think Brazil is a French shop overall and older Boeing Vipers and Hornets aren't in the running from what I could see, a French person is smiling somewhere. What ever aircraft they pick to me must match up well to a modern Flanker, even no there's no arms race. Right-sure:wink:
