Jobim and President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva have a predilection for the French Rafale F3, because of the strategic alliance signed with Paris. The plane, however, get almost twice the Gripen NG in the proposed package, and is more expensive than the American Boeing F/A-18 Super Hornet.

The sheet states that the option of FAB was held on two factors: the cost to own and operate over the 30 year life of the aircraft, and more open proposal for joint development offered by the Swedes.

For Americans and French, the fact that the Gripen NG is a model still being tested makes it a mystery in terms of cost. In common, all believe it is a good chance that the preference of the FAB be supplanted by Jobim.
