The Flygsystem 2020 ("Flight System 2020", abbreviated FS 2020) is an ongoing project by the

JAS 39 multirole fighters to the NG model, claiming the early versions of the aircraft will be obsolete by 2020.[4]

The Saab/Linköping University Generic Future Fighter project[5][6][7] is a testbed for its technologies.

Partnership

During a state visit of the

TAI TFX program.[8][9][10][11]

However, the collaboration with Turkey was under pressure due to Turkey being removed from the Joint Strike Fighter program. To tackle this, in July 2019 the Swedish government signed a memorandum of understanding with the United Kingdom to jointly develop technologies for the British BAE Systems Tempest sixth-generation stealth fighter program; these technologies may be integrated to Sweden's own Flygsystem 2020 project.[12] This was extended to include Italy in December 2020.[13]

On 9 December 2022, the UK, Japan and Italy merged their sixth-generation fighter jet projects, creating the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP). Japan and Sweden signed an agreement on possible future cooperation in the GCAP program in late December.[14]
