Gripen E for italy?

Only for the first 3 or so weeks. and even then since the introduction of ARH and the reduction in MP height, its unlikely that tactic would even still work now.

In aircraft like the Typhoon, the fairly standard thing to do is run flares in the large CMs and then run pure chaff in the BOL and then just use periodic deployment to drop large bursts of chaff when defending against an ARH threat.

Oh, there is also a glitch where if you have periodic countermeasures, your chaff will stop around 300 countermeasures left, and you will only release flares for an additional hundred before it stops working.

I dont think Ive ever experienced that.

I use the Grippen in 1v1s, and I’ve experienced that quite a bit. Reported it, but obviously it will never get fixed. Why would they fix Swedish vehicles, especially since we were supposed to get a Hornet with GBUs (months later and we still haven’t gotten it, so much for "later update)

What are you running 50/50 split?

Just jumped into the SAAF gripen C and dropped every single CM using periodic release with a 50/50 split

I’ve heard that Saab claims it’s as advanced as the F-35

Or at least one of/the most advanced fighter

The Holy Legion

idk if this is about gripen or italy anymore

no, could get f16am from romania, could be a good top tier premium

That would be pretty cool, or it can replace the terrible F16

bruh the ingame italian is no more real than the f16aj

how so

Go play Sweden if you wanna play Gripen E
Gripen E for Italy is a dumb idea

Italy rented F16s entirely to have something AMRAAM capable instead of upgrading the ADV whilst they waited for the Typhoon.

So should have Aim-9Li and AMRAAM.

So, it’s not as fake as the F16AJ, but it’s a pretty poor representation of it

You lot can bloody wait.

Sweden should not be hit with another Gripen C situation.

Italy doesn’t need the Gripen E because it already has the Eurofighter

I personally think it should not get it because sub tree copy paste vehicles just delude the tech trees and in this case would make grinding Sweden redundant because there would be nothing special in the Swedish tech tree.

Look at it like this:
Why would anyone want to grind Sweden to just get the Gripen E, if you could as well grind Italy to get both the Gripen E and the Eurofighter.

The Hungarian subtree should get the MS20 Block 2 upgrade as the final end-of-the-line fighter. IRIS-T with Meteor.

I fully agree in this view, we need to keep some uniqeness in respective nation otherwise it destroys the purpose of grinding or choosing a specific nation. I hope the Gripen E will be unique to Sweden but i think we all know that wont happen, just my wishfull thinking :)

so its just missing armament rather than a f16 variant that was only proposed

Gaijin has already decided on giving planes to whoever had them irl
