The well-known Swedish fighter jet Gripen arrived in the Middle East for the first time yesterday when it touched down at Airport Expo Dubai in readiness for its regional exhibition debut at Dubai 2005 - the ninth international aerospace show.

The Gripen version that arrived in Dubai will take part in the Dubai 2005 daily flying display. It is the very latest model of this first new-generation fighter to enter service.

During Dubai 2005, Saab display pilot Fredrik Müchler will use a single-seat Gripen C or a dual-seat Gripen D - both of which are fully operational fighter aircraft - to perform his world-renowned air display that has won public acclaim over the past few years at the Farnborough and Paris air shows.continue..
