Why go for a South African Gripen when there is the ETPS one?
Absolutely. I’d imagine it’d be a slower AJ and be unmatched in maneuverability, at least from what I know/read.
Even with folders, that’s 3 rows for Mig-29s, 4 if 29K is put there.
Cause that according to gajin is a private company
No, it’s not. It’s owned by the MoD.
i said according to gajin it is not that it actually is cause it is partially owned by the us the MoD
The first thought of most of these people is the CF-18/188. that or an SA plane.
When did Gaijin talk specifically about the JAS39D and not just in general?
I know it won’t happen, and talk about “paper vehicles” but it’d be interesting to see the avro arrow.
Isn’t the company defunct now ?
Where are you getting that many more ( vertical ) locations for M29 's from ?
no clue
also it only used for training with no armament
Yak-141.
Well Thailand is arming their D’s so it’s possible
Why are you arguing about the ETPS Gripen again when there is a SAAF Gripen and a couple much better, much more realistic options?

Because it’s actually used by Britain.
Ermm they confirmed they won’t add researchable SAAF aircraft
Used by british test pilots you mean

Technically wrong. It’s the first ever thrust vectoring production Sukhoi. It’s the first of the production Su-30’s that have canards, but even a two seat Su-27 with canards existed before it.
The majority of the first Indian Flankers were simple Su-30K’s. All of the flankers were Russian in origin, and the Indians didn’t fund research to create the MKI, they funded the production.
