thats crazy, that plane should become extremely unstable above 27°, in some scenarios even unflyable
gripen can also do this in sim controlls:
Fair comment but why does the insructor not restrict the raf the same?
Seems very unfair. The grippy can win but has to use different controls…
Question: How do you get the result of Gripen being No.1 in real life
Red flag alaska 2006
Key Performance Highlights:
- Aerial Kills: 10 “kills” on Day 1 alone (vs F-16 Block 50+, F-15Cs, Eurofighter Typhoon)—one pilot downed 5 F-16s in close air combat. Zero losses overall; Gripens evaded all threats undetected.
AI simulation puts it at number 1. Pilot testomy also.
source?
and pls dont come with a news article
Search red flag alaska and choose yourself. Its widly reported
so you are parroting nothing but propaganda
the Gripen was on blue side in red glag alaska 2006
and the EF didnt took part in it
so please explain to me why there arent any news articles from 2006 talking about how great the gripen did?
10 kills including 1 typhoon
so why is the article from 2021
talking about something that happened 2006
how can it shoot down a EF if it wasnt at that exercise
I wasnt there to confirm what and wasnt shot down
Maybe they kept it on the quiet as its a bit of a oof for the EF or maybe military website is propaganda
He doesnt exactly say what went down… maybe hes just being diplomatic
he says that the gripen was on blue side
directly contradicting your news article
he did
And maybe thats all hes permitted to say. Jet vs jet results are rarely published
Or like i said the reports from everywhere else are wrong. Cant confirm either way
First of all, don’t be a child when you make a point you can’t just ask others to search for the source, it’s the responsibility for you to list the sources.
Saab’s Gripen C/D shines in Alaska Red Flag exercise – Global Defense Corp
Furthermore, in this source you provided, the original quote was
This quote claims Gripen having advanced teamwork abilities and great datalink, and therefore the cause of it to shine in the exercise. However, you mentioned “Real life i read grippy number 1 guns only”, and this source does not justify your opinion in a 1v1 guns only dogfight.
Finally, when we look for a source we must check how legit the author is. If you click into this GDC corp company pages, it does not even show where this company comes from; when you check their social media you can find few followers; they even allow random Ads pop up on their site. I do not see guarantees of them being “not biased”.
the whole gripen story was made up 15 years after the execise
if it really did that great we would have news articles, or anyone talking about that before 2021
