since you deleted your post in the other thread
the J-15T has 48 CMs and not 32
each row of CM dispensers has 3 CMs, like on the Su-33
and the J-15 has 16 rows of CM dispensers
16 x 3 = 48

these look kinda wierd…
i have the docs about belgs f16 going against algeria mig29
What do you mean weird?
maybe very old ones, but they are used in Arctic operations frequently.
how, if the Saab production lines are way smaller
i mean so can F-35 it just takes some time to integrate. pretty much all of Canada’s inventory is already compatible though so it doesnt even matter
i meant they kinda look the same ( also wierd cuz language )
Man, as morbid as this may sound, I wish there were more videos showcasing the destructive power of weapons like that
you can probably find footage of them tearing up some patch of dirt in the desert during testing
Most of the Gripens parts already exist on other aircraft, or are handled by different companies. It’s always been that way, same with the Gripen C models.
Also SAAB is a mess when it comes to the Gripen and also wanting to pursue their 6th Gen fighter.
I had been corrected on discord hence why I deleted it. I suppose J-15T can run chaff heavy even with just 48 countermeasures. I wonder how J-15T will do with next gen IR missiles.

It’s a danish F16, the page just talks about them needing to be modified to work in Nordic cold environments as they have problems getting the engines to start. A problem we didn’t have when we bought the J35F from Sweden since it was made to deal with the low temps.
Even Norsk F-5’s had to be modified for de icing

Is it because of the roundel on them, that airbase is in plenty of magazines and we have similar roundels.
That’s also bad scans of old newspapers and poor camera quality. Here’s a older image of the Dutch and Danish doing joint training exercises. A lot better quality then an old magazine.
Wonder what rank the giraffe is

As of the last time I’ve seen it talked about by more trusted sources was for the Canadian military. The heavy rumour is that the mixed fleet is all but locked in, but the grenral this is that it can be used in the talks when the NA trade deal expires here this year, hence why the overdo review is still open/
Or at least it was anything I heard anything really about it. Other news (that could easily lead to the SAAB deal being taken) has taken about everything else over the last few weeks, the Defence Industrial Strategy and its fallout (albeit good fallout)
I have tons of scans from Danish archives that I was able to visit so seeing really blurry images isn’t really new to me.
I catalog nearly all Danish aircraft magazines in my topic post I made, (shameless self plug you should look through Danish Draken History and General discussion of Danish aircraft)
Hell I’ve even posted some Harrier ones you can ask @Morvran

any interesting argument today? and is dev streams today or next friday?
Dev stream should be Friday this week
Not the fastest unless it’s at very high altitude and past mach 1.3, which honestly if you go that high to reach those speeds you’re asking to get swatted by the hundreds of telephone poles, not that everyone even reaches those speeds very often in ARB unless they’re flying the top dogs sticking to high altitude and you can only really stay up there if you got the missile count to compete (or performance to abuse notch and boresight launches like Rafale thanks to TVC fox 3s), which the F-16s do not. Your comparison to the Gripen E falls apart when you realize the 7 BVR missiles the Gripen E gets are coupled with 2 IR missiles, which in the F-16s you take either or, and the average player usually carries 4 amraams and 2 9Ms, or you take full amraams and no IRs, AESA is present even on 13.0 platforms like the Kfir C.10, the F-2 is a prime example of an all round fighter with an AESA and only really lacks HMD (MAWS not really necessary), the JF-17 has MAWS at 13.3. You could argue that sure they’re features that aren’t really combined into a single jet at those lower BRs, but it will never warrant a BR higher than 14.0 when said platform is an F-16, it’s just not competitive beyond 13.7 and that is a fact. So it’s either triple rack amraams or it’s DOA.

triple rack would be cinema
