Hey, thats mean but yes…
Not like anyone else talks about Danish stuff so. I made a schizo post room for others to look at my ramblings lmao.
Also you asked if it was better and i went to double check, same 2.2s burn time and pull, stat cards also say they are the same and Gszabi’s list of missile specs also has it listed as the same iirc.
If there is a difference irl with basic 9N i wouldn’t know it, only 9N-2 unfortunately. Though if i had to guess it probably also has the radar slaving but i can’t check given the F-35 has no radar lmao
do go on… i love drakens dude
Currently trying to find some with the M71 pod, i have a few but not many.
M71 is what allowed some of these images which weren’t technically given permission to be taken or fly lol

Another image from the battle of Britain training event
Last Draken delivered by SAAB after undergoing the changes to the airframe to become a strike fighter as per request of the RDAF.
also a Draken that had to emergency land using the Fuel tanks as Ski’s
[Translation summary] After a bird strike the aircraft was forced to make an emergency landing on a snowy runway, both pilots made it out of the crash unharmed, the vehicle itself suffered no damage to the exterior but the internal were damaged from the bird such as the engine having a hole punch into it from one of the air intakes.

Just wanted to say I very much enjoy the Draken content
Hopefully, some more TT drakens will be added in the future- still disappointed that the J35XS is a prem and the F-35 is a squad vehicle
Would also love to see some Danish camos for the Norwegian F-16 AM

Best we can hope for is J35J, F-35(Pre WDNS), and the J35ÖE
Would like to see all of them, but also hoping the Finnish Draken will eventually be TT as well, along with the Rb27
I have a slight suspicion the other draken variants may be event vehicles, given Gaijin’s track record of being allergic to adding TT Drakens…
But anyways, please do keep up with the posts on this thread :) More draken content the better

Quotation marks will be used for near exact word translations, some things ill be shortening as info was on a page prior.
The page is a personal memoir from a former Danish Air Force officer VAD (Shortened name) reflecting on his time in the 1980s as a pilot for the RDAF.
“VAD had something absolutely brilliant at his disposal - a Volkswagen with a radio and a red flashing light on the roof, so you could (for the most part) drive freely on the airfield. It was worth its weight in gold when you were crazy about planes and flying like I was and had even managed to get a permanent photo permit from the security officer. At first I asked for permission to use the car, but eventually it ended up with VAD asking nicely if he could have the car when he was going to fly.”
He describes his time working as a Flight Safety officer. He talks for a little bit about how they were quick to handle any aircraft to check for problems with anything as if they were to miss something it could put peoples lives at risk so anything and everything was reported to FTK or Tactical Air Command.

“A Draken is coming in for landing, and then there’s the job for the FLY SIK officer. The fact that a technical error was discovered, an unexpected heavy downpour of rain, incorrect braking technique, or perhaps bad tire treads? The cause must be found so that we can learn from it.”
Went ahead an updated the main page at the top with 2 new bug reports and went ahead and marked whether they are open or accepted, if something gets implemented ill be sure to change them.
@Thomas_Belgium figured you might like this, it was a event with the Dutch and the Danes in the 1980’s iirc. Been a while since i had this image ill try to dig up some stuff.
