What's surprising though is why older parts are on backorder. You would think that those companies would be cranking out parts like crazy to cover for the lack of new parts needed.
But I guess if Saab isn't paying for new parts already delivered, they don't pay for the old ones either so the whole chain breaks down.
I wish those companies would be allowed to sell openly instead of having to first deliver to Saab and then wait to get paid.
It's risky though since if the demand is big enough, it will be someone in another country ready to pick up the slack and start manufacturing parts.
Since patents and copyrights are not worth much nowadays, they could loose even more by not making and selling the parts.
