Global InformationFlygsystem 2020 information
The Flygsystem 2020 ("Flight System 2020", abbreviated FS 2020) is an ongoing project by the Swedish Air Force to develop a fifth-generation low-observable fighter jet by 2035.[1][2] Little public information exists about the project; there are no official statements about the current stage of development, although a video claims to show a miniature prototype test.[3] In 2012, Lieutenant Colonel Lars Helmrich of the Swedish Air Force asked members of the Riksdag to consider the development of a new jet fighter or to upgrade all present 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.

Saab is investigating the design of the next generation fighter that will someday eventually replace the Gripen. […] a small research program that Saab is conduction with the University of Linköping. […] It looks similar to the Gripen and the main difference is the V-tail

Sweden's decades-long history of innovation in the aerospace sector is also evidenced by its Generic Future Fighter (GFF) concept. Developed by the Fluid and Mechatronic Systems division at Linköping University's department of Management and Engineering, the design has a Gripen-like fuselage with canards and canted tails.
