it is I just checked Dev is ending on the 15th

Yes, but it’s not ready so it will be extended

I mean just cause no news doesn’t mean the devs aren’t working today to get it out soon

Unlikely, with the winter event coming on Thursday, the update will probably come the 16th or 17th. Also trust me, gaijin doesn’t really care about if something is ready or not 🫠just means they’ll have to fix it after their break.

getting micas to the gripen is going to be a battle, if gripen gets it then people want it on typhoon and rafale players dont want anyone else have it in the first place because they know its the thing giving them a clear edge over everyone else. (no its not just that ‘‘french players are just that guud’’)

This is some “it came to me in a dream” level stuff.

It is not present. Which is a shame, won’t know the pylon it is on until live.

Im guessing belly + innermost on each wing

Gripen is very commercialized and compatible with basically anything western but I don’t think it makes sense giving Sweden Mica? Maybe if some future buyer of the 39E happens to have Mica in their arsenal, that nation could get it but I think best case scenario that report will get “Forwarded as suggestion” and never implemented. Sweden can use their AIM120 until it’s time for Meteor. There’s no need for a placeholder like when 39A got skyflashes before Fox 3’s

I still want AIM-120C5 to be implemented for Gripen E

why risk going to 14.0+ for a downgrade missile


When there was a GRIPEN E exhibition in Brazil, I had the chance to see the project up close. Maybe in this video you can get a better look at the fighter’s weapons and equipment. And yes, I recorded the video in a Top Gun style — the funny part is that it was basically the same year Top Gun: Maverick was released 😂. In the background is the world’s first airplane, the 14-BIS, hahaha

Interesting to see this. The missiles on the belly seems to be sitting in a chevron pattern can anyone confirm if it is like that on the dev server?

I have more images, including one showing a weapon where two units are mounted on a single hardpoint on the Gripen. I marked it in red — has this already been added to the development server? I believe this configuration would significantly increase the quantity of whatever it is.

those are GBU-39, they are 4 per pylon and have been in the game for a while

It seems that the Brazilian Gripen’s weapon is not in a ‘V’ shape, but has better aerodynamics, being slimmer compared to the one on the development server. Try to notice this in the images I managed to capture from the footage and in the development server screenshot. I believe that the Brazilian version being slimmer at the tip helps with aerodynamics at high speeds.”**
