>There is talk of the US and Britain buying and providing Ukraine with older model Swedish fighter bombers

Should just go for F-16s right from the start. A lot of countries have these near the end of their airframe lifetime.

That would get some use out of these before being retired anyway.

Biden would need to lead on this and therefore I temper my hopes.

The proposal for surplus Swedish fighters for Ukraine came from a British military think tank and made good sense. Given Britain’s strong support for Ukraine, the idea has a fair chance of going forward.
