JAS-39E for Sweden

Irrelevant, the point is in “can it use it” rather than “does it own it”, see Swiss F/A18 for example

a “minor nation” has had far and away the best plane in the game for a year now

I am not sure about that fr

Was the discussion not about if they will get brimstones? Gaijin adds weapons to balance the vehicle. For example the sky sabre and its camm-er. The comparison was not irrelevant. It indirectly checks if the gripen air to ground capabilities is underwhelming and needs brimstones to get balanced.

The whole laugh is that at the expense of the sy 30 Malaysian, that he can use KH38mt when he never possessed them

Id like to see the brimmies becomming fnf

Further more id like to see the micas on it initially then perhaps remove it later for balance if needed

But isnt the NG just a technology demonstrator, wich was further developed into the Gripen E/F? Its basically a upgraded Gripen B/D, but it was used to test new features and improvements. That would more fit as an event/premium or squadron vehicle tbh.

Gripen ng was a demonstator, an upgraded jas 39 d.

Funny thing that you mention that it is the dev’s decision for balancing when the russians have had overpowerd a2g missiles for years now and most of their seekers are ment to lock building and not tanks, but still somehow does. The worst one (kh38mt) never even existed, so if you think they add stuff for balancing you are far off

You might not agree with their way of balancing or their decisions therein, but it is very much a fact that munitions are up to balance decisions and not historical accuracy.

JAS39D is the 2 seated trainer aircraft based on model C. I.E the plane all gripen pilots fly before getting to fly the single seat version.

As the JAS39B was the school version for the JAS39A

NG is next generation and was what SAAB called the E model before it became the E model.

What you are talking about is the Gripen Demonstrator (it’s only 1 example of this aircraft) a test bed that they use for all different things and yes it’s based on JAS39D but it’s not the NG.

It was originally called gripen demo or (39-7). Saab marketed it as gripen ng demonstrator because it was a physical machine proving the ng concept.

Brazil uses SPICE bombs for their Gripen E jets so i think the Swedish one should get SPICE’s

It seems that data mining has uncovered engine data for the E-Gripen, does this mean that the E-Gripen will be added in this update?
