The EU’s recent approval of a €90 billion loan to Ukraine—after Hungary’s veto was lifted—has given Swedish aerospace firm Saab renewed optimism that it will secure a large Gripen fighter‑jet contract this year. Saab CEO Micael Johansson told SVT Nyheter that, following an October declaration of intent between Ukraine and Sweden to purchase 100–150 Gripen aircraft, the company hopes the deal can be finalized within months. Of the €90 billion loan, around €60 billion is earmarked for military procurement, and Johansson expects a portion of those funds to be used for fighter jets, bolstering Saab’s prospects for a significant order.

While a sovereign data center is attractive, does it make sense to put a highly sensitive data centre & bomb-&-spy-magnet in a highly populated city? It makes sense for our data & personnel with expertise to shepherd it to be Canadian, no question. But if we're going to be working on Gripens as well as F-35s, & knowing that data centres require serious cooling measures but would also become military targets, wouldn't it make more sense to be more remote, further from US & Russian borders, someplace where the data scientists & soldiers depending on that data are in proximity, but also generally cooler? Someplace like Gimli (nice Nordics connection, there, with an old military airport that could be upgraded) or Cold Lake (already has an air base) -- both of which are beautiful places to live, two hours access to cities with research universities & international airports, & have consistently cooler seasonal temperatures with deep water lakes for the data centre cooling.
