J10C is pretty significantly more powerful with TWR IIRC
I also think a lot of players don’t know a lot of basic things, but that’s nothing new and honestly we all started somewhere. Can’t fault someone for not knowing something they never had the chance to learn.

I can too, you saw me do it earlier, don’t discredit my ability to be a wanker.
Thanks ^^
so 11.7% increased thrust at speed compared to 13.1% increased thrust at speed. Honestly within margin of error between the two. Don’t know why it’s smaller than the others though. Likely because of things like this if i were to guess:
Because it never was, just people going crazy reporting wrong thrust while it didnt have its own flight model. Now it does
For FM changes its still not finished, only changes are miniscule amount of fuselage drag, engine and empty mass (7120kg is a weird number, its just +370kg from C - another gripen UFO incoming?)

Also, you’re telling us that the Gripen E is well modeled? I hope that’s a joke.

the part you are talking about is not on all gripen E models
It is present on new Es.
The model is at best an inaccurate representation of the fielded platform, and at worst lazily wrong.
should be added to our gripen E model
The model in game is based off of Gripen NG (And some early E prototypes)
Which would be acceptable if we had the NG, but we don’t as Gaijin wanted to add the E with none of the bells and whistles.
The model should be revised. But we’re all pretty aware of that fact.

These are both Gripen E’s, however right picture is before they increased the wing size IIRC. There is a report on it Community Bug Reporting System

It’s VERY well modeled, the only thing missing in the 3D model is that extended wing.
Also, the right plane in that bottom image is still the E (look at wingtips) but in different stages of prototyping.
To show how well they managed to model it i’m going to show you something that i don’t think you even knew were different between the C and E. Look at the square box on the nose cone just in front of the IRST.
In-game:
E:
C:

It is one of the better 3D models, has a few inaccuracies but on a technical level, it is probably one of the better ones in game. Can’t wait for a dubiously put together texture to butcher it.
The MFD is pretty disappointing so far imo, and missing some 3D things in cockpit last I checked. external model is good though aside from the wing
Yes, I get it. Aside from this aspect, the rest is pretty well modeled. I still have doubts about the engine performance, knowing that the Gripen E even has slightly bigger air intakes, yet it still has a smaller increase in max thrust gain in flight compared to the C model

Oh I’m not defending the cockpit. Even were I to be a contrarian, I’d wager I would struggle to pull a defense of it out of the aether.
