PRAGUE (Reuters) – The Czech government agreed on Wednesday to open talks with the United States on future supplies of the F-35 fighter jets made by Lockheed Martin Corp (NYSE:LMT) to replace leased Gripen fighters, news agency CTK reported.

The NATO member country will also lead direct talks to buy CV-90 fighting vehicles from BAE Systems (OTC:BAESF) after cancelling a tender for the supplies, it said.
