The gripen has a switch in the cockpit to the back right labeled “peace” at the top and “war” at the bottom. i don’t have exact sources or even reliable information but it is supposed to unlock some limits on engine, g-limiters, radar bands and overall electronic/flight characteristics to make the plane a step better overall.

Unfortunately i havent found any to my liking yet for the 39C
Edit, there is a few more now since i last looked.
I’m very glad we got this. Sure its not the F-15, and we have yet again no real SARH capability compared to what others have, but we do have an absolute menace in close combat.
id rather forefeit all SAHR capability for DF capability in the current top tier meta, sure when FOX-3 is added that may change (i doubt it unless they’re given a really good ability to track on the deck)
Agreed. I suspect everyone will get some form of Fox 3s around the same time, so i suspect the meta may shift towards planes that can get to high alt and sling Amraams at the highest speeds as quickly as possible, rather than the current “dodge the Phoenix and R-27 spam”
I’m pretty sure I’ve heard of jets having that, the paper referring It to “Normal” load factor limits kind of indicates the existence of other load limits in place?
@Flame2512 just perfectly showed sources for Quite literally different load limits for other jets, with the lowered one being labeled exactly that - “NORMAL Limit”
I don’t believe this (edited) chart represents the full flight envelope. There’s clearly context to the multiple redacted variables you didn’t touch on as well as the line becoming ‘dotted’ after 7.8G’s. Which is used to indicate something like lack of data or the likes of it.
Yep, you can actually see that switch in the cockpit right now in the game, set to “war mode”.
I actually tested the real Viggen’s G-suit in a real simulator. Very cool :)
Most Gripen A skins can also be modified quiet easily, just need to change the “a” to “c” in the BLK files. In addition to the Blackjack skin, I’ve also got this one on mine WT Live // Camouflage by Hassan_Tiger
Gunjob also was in this battle and won 1v2 :D

Currently Gripen is doing 25+ deg/s sustained turn at speeds as low as 0.35 mach. No one noticed this yet?
Well and above reality on this one.
Mate, I just wanted to get close to hear your concerns and contact you about your extended warranty.
😂😂 I was just chilling doing some rolling and then I found another Gripen inside my cockpit
Called it earlier, it seems to have no drag, it can play every (even the F15) fighter in vertical, and rates so well no jet can outrate it… In terms of high AoA it seem to have very little AoA at low speed… it’s utterly broken
From what info do you have to back that up
Yeah it does have very little drag, thats kinda the big thing of the Gripen airframe.
Get a video of its sustained turn rate and then see how it compares to declassified documents. Just stating a number is meaningless.
My report shows this pretty well
Gripen at 1000m and higher does 27 and more deg/s it has better energy retention than an F14, lacks lot of AoA at low speed (strange considering it has little to no AoA at slow speed, strange for a canard design…) and I won’t talk about the way it behave it doesn’t slow down or bleed speed…
