Italy + Sweden: you get Gripen and Aew&C planes from the latter, AMX, C-27J , all Aermacchi trainers and all the helicopters than you would need (+ something more) by Augusta Westland from the former.
Plus Selex and Ericsson for avionics.
And Staffan de Mistura as an added bonus...

Basically anything from Sweden, Italy, Spain (casa), Brazil, India, Indonesia, Switzerland...
BTW how would you view the KAI T-50? It is a design specific to a korean requirement, by a US company. The M-349 is basically a Russian design so how would you see this too.

In the case that they are the original customer and they got the full data, full control of the production process and the complete liberty of further developments, they certainly can be put into IMHO.
M-346 is more clear situation, at the beginning it was an joint venture and after some times they decided to part way in the friendliest of terms so to finalize the design separately using respectively eastern and western components.

botswana
Botswana Defence Force Air Wing
in june 2016 the country has confirmed negotiations to buy between 8 and 12 Gripen C/D units at a potential cost of $1.7 billion. but after much deliberation it is decided that gripens are actually too advanced for the requirements of BDF air wing. the available budget of $1.7 billion would be used to modernise the whole air wing instead.
brazil
- 3 kc-390 to replace the c-130b ($300 million)
- 12 emb-314 super tucano ($220 million)
- 1 emb-135bj legacy 650 vip to replace the gulfstream iv ($34 million)
korea
- 12 kai fa-50bw fighter aircaft to replace the cf-5a/d ($500 million)
switzerland
- 6 pilatus pc-24 utility jet to replace beech 200 king air. 2 to be fitted with ISR equipments ($80 million)
- additional 7 pc-7 mkII to add to the current 5 ($40 million)
italy
- 10 leonardo aw139 helicopter to replace bell 412 ($160 million)
- 12 leonardo aw009 (pzl sw-4) to replace as350 ($15 million)
- 16 tecnam p2010 basic trainer/liaison/border patrol ($6 million)
a total spend of $1.4 billion.
There you have it, a thoroughly modernised air force for less cost than the proposed saab gripen buy.

like the other thread but harder.
build an air force using aircraft manufactured by companies based in countries that are not the permanent 5 UN security council members.
that means no US, UK, French, Russian, or PRC aircraft.
also no license built aircraft where the original design is from those 5
but to make it easier, its okay if the plane has some parts from the big 5 (engines, radar, etc).
air force size, location is any you want.
