Gripen will always be competitive, and no it didn’t get nerfed.
It’s still the #1 jet in War Thunder.
Typhoons are equal to F-15 MSIP II+…

bol?
Nah they are coming i doubt they only giving AMRAAMS to the AV8B+
the Counter measure rails on the Gripen and many others, they nerfed them into the ground. Almost not worth taking them on several aircraft they’ve been nerfed so much

AIM-9Li addition would be pointless from developer’s perspective. It would only add another line to the code while serving no purpose other than muh historical accuracy. Not to mention how it being smoky can be used as balance argument by some people.
Also - do you really want to be at disadvantage against other jets just because your F-4F ICE didn’t get to carry AIM-9M irl?
No British jet exists as an equivalent to where we are now. Hence why the Gripen was added.
It’s the unfortunate reality that not all nations built 1:1 examples to other nations jets. Where they happens in game, we always try to find solutions, such as the South African Gripen.
We can’t add what doesn’t exist however.

It’s not fake, it’s based on reality; of which I made bug reports around countermeasures over the last month.
I brought flare filler to the attention of Gaijin Entertainment; and now they’ve added another size, which I suggested.

AMRAAMs mean significantly less dogfighting, which means less dogfight performance isn’t as much of a hinderance.
so will the SAAF gripen get AMRAAMS or will we get something else
Harrier Gr9A
Sea Harrier FA2
Tornado F3 AoP
BAE EAP
Tornado Gr4
Typhoon DA2
but fine whatever. I know Gaijin hate actually giving Britain its native stuff for some reason. Still waiting on that IFV…

The SA Gripen has only just joined the game and is currently one of the best aircraft in the game. It’s a bit too early for these types of questions.

I’m more afraid than every nation got early fox3 but France nothing since MICAs would be too much powerfull…
And it would be horrible to give the upper hand on the 2 planes you meet every 10 battles, isnt it…?
I’m not sure what you are on about here? My answer was regarding Typhoon and equivalent fighters and that spesifcally. Why you are jumping to a bunch of other aircraft that didn’t even come up I’m not sure of.

Let’s read that.
So, you are the reason why the F3 and Gr7 have no CMs anymore. Well. Bug reports have already been submitted with actually information to havei t undone

11.7, 11.7, 13.0 if AMRAAMs, not armed, 11.7, 13.3.
You listed nothing that would be 12.0 - 12.7.
