SAAB JAS 39E/F Gripen - General discussion

The missiles in general (goes for all air to air missiles in use on Gripen) are not hung on the pylon directly but on a separate missile rail (lavett in Swedish). I think Sweden has two different missile rails, one with and one without BOL, with no difference as to which missiles can be fired from it.

Edit: this is just for the wing pylons, the belly pylon ejector racks I do not know exactly how they operate. But they can carry meteor too of course.

Hell yeah.

Let’s see what they do in the future with the Gripen E considering we have the pre production variant and they won’t change it.

If they drop the production version with the different wing, etc then I hope to see some new weaponry at that point.

They need fix basic things first before even adding another version.

Knowing gaijin they’ll just go straight in for the next model.

Still waiting for them to fix the LE flaps and some of the FCS functions but they haven’t done anything regarding that.

Surprised they even took my canard function report though.

They dont even fix the RWR coverage nor flight performance let alone fixing those issues…

Bold to assume we’re going to get a new Gripen, instead of them pretending this one’s fine.

Yeah I mean, the R-74 is going to pull 140º or what xdd

At this point some Roblox game is going to model the Gripens better than what WT has to offer xd

We will have a DCS module announced, and released out of early access before we see so much as a maws tweak.

Nah its gonna be 360 no scope before killing enemy F22.

The game I’ve played within Roblox, have been generous with the bug reporting granted that it’s an actual report and not a bogus one.

They released the Rafale within the game, bug reported the air brake function and it was quickly fixed within 2-3 days of reporting.

It’s still annoying that nothing has been said or done about the FCS and control surfaces on the Gripen. Haven’t heard back on the “flap” feature yet and the LE flaps are still just a cosmetic item

It was an exaggeration, I know they aren’t the exact same.

what game’s that? I’ll accept DM’s :D

Game called Combined Arms. Early access atm but the flight modeling and everything is very good

Why would the code name for the missile be Mk 3?? That seems almost purposely misleading, or alternatively (and worse), that is the model they are basing it off of.

Also, what’s the deal with all of the inaccuracies with the RBS15 in the dev server? Like, half of them are a quick, 2-minute search, and the other half are in the suggestion(s) for it.

Welcome to UK tree :D

I understand that gaj doesn’t allow GNSS release of IR guided munitions that have it, but does this apply to point locks (yellow empty square) as well? I cannot get Spice 250s to target before they all veer off in random directions until they lose energy.

Yeah spice 250s don’t work with it at all sadly

Someone’s telling me they don’t work in test flight only in actual battles.
