The global scope of US spy operations seems to cost America, with only one 4.500.000.000 dollar deal.
As he says Reuters η Βραζιλία έχει συνάψει σύμβαση 4,5 δισεκατομμυρίων δολαρίων για την αγορά μαχητικών αεροπλάνων από την σουηδική εταιρεία Saab AB, προσπερνώντας μια συμφωνία που είχε στα σκαριά εδώ και χρόνια με την αεροπορική εταιρεία των ΗΠΑ Boeing.
Although Saab has reportedly made a better offer, Brazilian officials blame recent allegations of espionageof the US for the unfortunate outcome of the agreement.
"The problem of the NSA will destroy the Americans," an unnamed source from the Brazilian government told the Reuters.
The timing of this announcement is not surprising. The deal to replace the outdated Brazilian fighter fleet has been in negotiations for more than a decade. OR Boeing promoted the F / A-18 Super Hornet that are considered as a pioneer of their kind. However, recent revelations that the US National Security Service wants to spy on the Brazilian government, including President Dilma Rousseff's personal communications, have led the decision makers to believe they could not trust the US airline.
The contract that ended with Saab AB requests the Swedish company to provide 36 new fighter jets Gripen NG by 2020. In the damages caused to the US economy, in addition to the $ 4.5 billionmillions της κατασκευής των αεροπλάνων, θα πρέπει να προστεθούν και τα δισεκατομμύρια των συμβάσεων που θα ακολουθήσουν για τις συντηρήσεις και σέρβις.
