i could also paste the eurofighter and the rafale, but while their cost per unit is lower, they see pretty expensive to use.
If you compare these airfighters with the F35... well the only one that seems better (on the paper) is the f22...

however the combat radius of the gripen seems pretty low
I don't think you can compare these.... You are talking about a jet vs a STOVL - massive difference. An STOVL can take off like a helicopter, a regular jet cannot.
