Gripen NG with Aim-120s + Aim-9Ms (until IRIS-Ts) and then the Gripen E with Meteors and IRIS-T is probably the better way to do it.

super hornet engine…
I think its not only the hornet thats" aircraft thats sting " its can be f16 viper
Which one, is it the worse CAS than most 10.7’s or is it the one trick pony BOL?
What a fun Gimmick, oh my bad you meant the F-18C with 440kg reduced weight at the cost of being 14.0 with no cas, no HMD, worse RWR, and no C-5 for trying to fight longer range aircraft.
isnt the Gripen E like very odd to name it that when it has only like 1 interchangeable part with the Gripen C in being the windshield lol
The French would like to have a word.

Well technically its Gripen E MS21
current most advanced Gripen C’s are MS20 BLK II
But like isnt the whole airframe different tho… like the Gripen E is …bigger lol
Nah 1400 CM is hilarious. I was almost ready to buy a premium to go down the swedish tree only for the MLU 2. Until I realized that I have no money.
And that is coming from a Hornet slanderer.
it’s also 1.2 tons heavier than jas39C
Mega engine? It wouldn’t change it that much, TWR is 1.22 the Gripen E weighs a lot more but the engine barely does a bit better than the C so at least its not Super hornet syndrome
bif thing for it is the new radar, and mountings for 3 more ARH missiles
Will be even better when those CMs are at full strength too. Large, short burn flares and standard calibre chaff (if modeled 100% correctly, would actually be slightly stronger than regular chaff as well)

Tbf the Hornets were overhyped and mid, we had vastly better vehicles sitting at 13.7 so i have no interest in the hornets, it may also be a bit biased considering for 6 months Sweden was stuck with the worst Hornet which is still 14.0 might i remind you and you have to grind it.
The problem is the hornets don’t help sweden air, they are just added filler.

would that radar actually help the Superhornet tho?
I must remind you it’s airframe is even worse than the C hornet’s
I just hope for a Mosquito Bomber too much to not take this excuse to guess it

The hopium. A 4k Cookie from a mosqutio would be so much fun to use in every gamemode.
well yes but they’re quite relevant because they are the most modern planes Finnland can offer and thus imo deserve being added
even if they’re mid
