March 13, 2018Switzerland to Vote on New Fighter Procurement
Switzerland is to hold a national referendum on its planned future fighter procurement. According to an announcement made on 9 March, voters will be asked if the country should proceed with a programme to replace the air force’s ageing fighters with a new aircraft, but unlike the previous referendum on the issue held in 2014, the type-selection will take place after the vote.
In 2014, 53 percent of the Swiss population voted not to fund the procurement of 22 Saab Gripen E fighters.
