Reminder they thought AGM 65B a reasonable payload against the Pantsir during its reign of terror. Or no AMRAAMs for a short century. Etc. Even the bloody pommies had a better lot compared, and their lot was miserable.
I was just thinking the same lol
tbh i doubt they put on on there bc its excessive irl
but not that it cant go on there
Cant compatibility be argued? or does that need more evidence
BOL does go on the exact same pylons on the wings after all
Yeah it is a bit low using the F18Es data but its not by too much, by like 100kgf at most
Lets not forget the generosity behind giving us AGM-65B with with SAP warhead. Truly gamechanging

Nope you’d need a photo for sure. BOL is installed in the wings because the vortices they create help disperse the ejected material. I’d hazard a guess the engine would just cook the BOL IR or Chaff.
That is fair actually
If i find anything ill spam you on discord but until then thank you

You can start here, but yes, Gunjob is right, under pylons are solely for smol missiles or bombs like spice 250
Honestly a mica capable Jas-39E doesn’t seem tht crazy to me with how its looking in game atm, especially in the rank IX era we’re heading towards

What’s next su-30sm getting mica because it’s also compatible with it? That makes no sense imo.
Not all planes should get mica
Yeah that looks exactly like the underbelly pylon shown in the Gripen calendar:
The calendar can be found here: Gripen Calendar | Saab
It should also be noted that FMV also mentions a “Universal Missile rail Launcher” here: https://www.fmv.se/aktuellt--press/aktuella-handelser/utokad-bestallning-av-lavettsystem-till-jas-39-gripen/
I was not able to find anything online about this universal missile rail launcher, but it could help.
4x or 6x BOL ?
4, there are only 4 pylons under the wings.
LAU-128SE seems to be this “Universal Missile rail Launcher”, looks the same as in the SAAB pictures. This explicitly mentions compatibility with “AMRAAM, Sidewinder, ASRAAM, IRIS-T, Python, Derby, A-Darter and Meteor”.
I dont think the question is if the rail can use it i think its if it functions there

I think the flares might be good but the chaff would probably just egnite
Su-30sm2 wasn’t made to be exported/adopted to other NATO countries with their weapons in mind and Russia has plenty of their own armaments

That’s why i said su-30sm and not sm2
so the sm was ?..
So i kinda just noticed. Why is the gripen e 13.7? its quite under tiered. I assume it will be moved up at some point but if it hits live at 13.7 it will wreck shop.
