SAAB JAS 39E/F Gripen - General discussion

While you are technically correct the first image:

Is of a JAS39C and not the E.

TGP pylon for the E is different to C models iirc

It should be 16 spice and pod. I’ll do something later

Now just for them to fix the maws but i dont know if it has been reported

I think it was? Should be on the list

This still isnt fixed after a year, its more of a general issue with all of the Gripens but I think it still applies.

I wanna get the Gripen E just to chill in sim air battles with some good CAS weaponry to farm ground targets and this HUD thing is gonna make me claustrophobic.

I think the HUD for the gripen in general is f’ed up

Also the iff and other hud elements when looking offbore

Strangely it shows the recce pod on pylon 3 instead of 4. Most certainly interesting.

Yeah, though we don’t have the recce pod in game :P

I find the cockpit sight the most annoying, and I feel like it isnt talked about enough.

I just noticed while stock grinding, that there seems to be an invisible(?) avionics block modeled somewhere in gripen, because whenever i get hit i cannot fire countermeasures nor any suspended armaments

that gripen picture from the nose , looks like E to me?

btw TGP on gripen C is also in wrong angle ingame
