Major Update "Line of Contact" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

both will be good, i know sweden player will love having 2 gripens for them after so many years

The extended wing has signifigantly more weight and worse performance, it would be a downgrade in nearly every metric

Honestly i kinda want both hopefully a prototype E model with clipped wings comes before the E in the TT to bridge the gap between next gen missiles and current missiles

Bru im gonna soil myself if the UK gets an australian Boxer before Germany gets a tech tree one lol

Idk the production E feels like it will need EW to keep it afloat until meteors arrive

Don’t worry, that Aussie Boxer is almost guaranteed to be an event vehicle as well

there are other thing that are different from each model, maybe weapons/maws/ even cas weapons.

Eh, depends if they stay unique(inb4 brazil fornitaly and japan). So far the A kinda counts but i want gaijin to give it the IR-Otis to make ir more unique and work better with its IR missile kit. It was also exclusive to the JA37D and the Gripen A

It definitely will, prototype E models would also have less weight due to Arexis not being installed.

I though that was mainly for a hybrid HMS/D system no?

Probably true but i cant say that that makes me happier tho

How come it could have a worse FM that the C tho?
If Gripen E AMK is anything like EF AMK then it should provide better ITR and AoA especially when under load.
Coupled with better TWR than C it should be a straight upgrade.

Resume

It is a HMS but also a IRST nose sensor

Also spooky floating wing pylon from getting rid of a water mark so enjoy the actual image the artical uses.

Weight and wing-loading apparently

Go read the Gripen E threads one of them did the math and show their thing, its been a while but given 6 different people agreed on it it just kinda stayed with me.

Oh ok, people went deep with it, kinda sucks then.

Yeah im too lazy to do the bug report/suggestion for the Gripen to get the IR-Otis lol

Who here is on dev-server and never grinded France? Need your assistance. Please take a screenshot of Rafale C and Rafale M statcard.

Havent had a chance to test the new EFT yet, I did see it just has CAPTOR-E? shouldn’t it be split into mks? unless gaijin has just a historically given them all the same version

Not worth the effort given the expected response

‘Accepted’ for years
Or
‘Not enough info’ because they refuse to translate swedish
