I think more near the Mirage2000s, and even slightly better thanks to canards
From what I’m aware the C has single wheel nose landing gear. You can’t see the fuel probe on either the A or C unless there extended otherwise there hidden under a panel. Which you can’t tell in the trailer.
ehh im going to wait and see how it performs in game and if it will be given SARH missiles. im over having these hyped up aircraft to only be released 3-5 patches late and behind the meta while gaijin promotes them as the top dog in their marketing. maybe the gripen will perform but i aint holding my breath ever again
You can see the panel for the probe.
So no official news on the dev stream yet right?
Also I absolutely loved the trailer, and going off of the leak list, we still have several exciting additions to look forward to. Hopefully we get a dev stream tomorrow and get to have a lot more info …

If the F15 gets AIM120s I agree, however with AIM9L’s and AIM7M’s against 6+ R27ERs? It’ll be a slaughter. Hell, the F15 will be worse than the F16 by a landslide with that loadout.

If we do get an F15 at 12.7, it’ll need to be an F15C with an F15A Early before it in the tree imo

The fuel probe panel on the 39C ends before it gets past the end of the canards. The trailer that panel ends past the canard and behind the little fin. So either the model is unfinished or gaijin have just made the panel work symmetrical on both sides.

I also found a model of the JAS 39C that has the same front gear legs
The JAS 39E is the one with the single front gear
Its very very faint but you can see where the refeuling probe comes up
I don’t think it will get aim-9L, probably get those in stock but then aim-9M and with 4xaim-9M + 4xaim7 with a very good flight model (and better top speed than f16C), I see it 12.7 material
Also very strong radar

Gripen couldnt carry sparrows to my knowledge
I could see Gaijin fucking us like that so fair
Although it would be a kick in the teeth having to face the Flanker with that loadout when the BVR monster has no BVR abilities
Theres only rumors of the A being able to carry Skyflash but I think he meant F15A
Though I do faintly remember seeing Skyflash listed in its manual

oh shoot didnt even see that lmao
I think anyway I dont remember 100%
probably it will carry only aim-9M, like the f16A but instead of aim-9L you will have aim-9M, with the canards idk how much maneuverable will be, I assume better than f16C but losing a lot of energy while turning
