Hi,
because Germany is also considering to pull out from FCAS programme.

Germany Considers Split From France On Next Generation Fighter​

Disagreements over Future Combat Air System workshare mean Germany is also looking at teaming up with the UK or Sweden on its future crewed fighter.
thank you

Well, no, Sweden definitely don't have the resources to develop a brand new jet fighter again. Gripen already is straining them. And Germany can't supply much into the aircraft development except money. The UK led team is already moving their project forward so joining in collaboration is too late.

I respect the cultures and histories of European nations, but Europe's fragmented rather than unified military-industrial and research sectors have turned every joint development effort into a dismal disaster.

Gripen E at this point is mostly a done thing(working towards IOC). And for better or worse, it shows that they can do same again. Just not everything at the same time.
