SAAB JAS 39E/F Gripen - General discussion

Ah, my bad, ignore me guys, schitzo on the loose

All good bro, Anyone know if the dual racks we have on the Gripen are compatible with any guided munitions?

Hey, have you checked out the new BR changes? The Gripen got its high-altitude performance nerfed and is moving up to 14.7, but the MiG-35 isn’t changing at all. That’s so odd.

i’m guessing they’re doing it because of missile bufs, and having more stats about it

Gripen E got a high altitude nerf? What’s changed?

Last time they added weight to the airframe, they also nerfed the engine’s high-altitude thrust and made it have more drag up high.

They’re adding a premium Gripen (JAS 39-5)

What is that?

It’s one of the prototypes for the JAS39A.

Ehh.

Gets RB99 though, with the new selectable BR thing:

So it inudates the Gripen C and the Gripen A, neat

Was this a necessary addition?

they also gave Gripen-A (tt) rb99???

No just the prem

Yes to make people not bother playing the TT versions, why grind the TT when one premium can get the benefits of the A and the C

no

Huh guess I missed that when I was watching my friend check the aircraft on the dev

So why do we have the Gripen A if the C does what it does also? Or vice versa

idk, two paradigms clashing ig
also did you see that they added detailed DM to gripen? (currently missing the APU on the left side)

C has access to more modern air to ground (gbu49 vs gbu12 and the like) but yeah it feels silly
