I agree Skybird that Sweden did their homework on their respective aircraft. However, with regards to teething issues, The American F-15 and F-16 didn't have much in the way of problems as the concept, engineering and production were well thought out. Both aircraft are still highly regarded. Likewise, I didn't hear of any Issues with the Strike / Interceptor aircraft, Panavia Tornado's developed by Italy, United Kingdom and West Germany.

Likewise, the Eurofighter Typhoon didn't have a lot in the way of Issues to overcome. BAE Systems was heavily involved in the project as well. Both Aircraft were the result of collaborations with some of Europe's best aircraft designers and minds.
