It was announced today that, after studies in Holland by the airforce, aeronautical industries and scientific organisations, the JSF will be both the best and the cheapest candidate to replace the Netherlands F-16’s. According to the news in Holland, the Eurofighter was much to expensive, aswell as performing lesser than the JSF & Rafale. The French fighter was named to be performing much like the JSF, but it was around 20 mil. Euro more expensive. So it now is almost certain that the Dutch will go for the JSF.
