SAAF JAS-39C Technical Data and Discussion

You dont need this to be aggressive buddy.

Im just saying my hope is way that only Sweden will recieve JAS39E.

I just got a screenshot of Gripen A cockpit. This is just sad

Looks fine to me ;)

Do we even have pictures of gripen As mfds with pages on them?

Managed to find these and not sure how accurate they are. Not to mention there is not much you could use to do radar symbology, let alone rwr. Is current A horrendous? Yes, is there source to make it better? Not sure.

Interesting conversations in this thread. I would like to adress the towed decoy that someone mentioned previously, the Swedish Gripens use/d towed decoys for both A and C if i remember correctly, is this too early to be implemented to the game? Also it’s difficult as per usual finding good sources but these two URL’s are quite nice to read.

(This was previously mentioned in the topic)
SAAB JAS 39 Gripen

(In the middle there are some nice information about the countermeassures)
Gripen C / D Multirole Fighter Aircraft | Thai Military and Asian Region

ecm in general people seem to think its too early, many planes ingame already could get some form of ecm if it were added though (mirage 2000 comes to my mind)

Excellent. Now the target information block works correctly. The distance to it, its speed and altitude are indicated.
Previously, the TGT value showed the engine temperature, but now I have no idea what it shows.

Aren’t the mfds supposed to have iff? It’s annoying, because you can’t use them in sim because you can’t tell who’s friendly.

AS can be seen here

It has ° next to it, so that can mean limited amount of things.
And in game it does show the target heading

It looks like the changes have been rolled back. M now again means the speed of our plane, and TGT means the engine temperature.

it’ll probably be fixed when the major releases

Kinda like the 5th bomb pylon? Doubt

Huuuuuuuh

On the dev server it works well. I would even say - excellent. If you do not count the top box, then the radar page of the MFD works as per the bug report.
This is the TWS mode
The target taken for tracking in the TWS is circled and crossed out.
The red circle indicates active enemy contacts that the radar has seen over the last few passes.
The red triangle indicates enemy contacts that are “forgotten”. The radar has not seen them for a long time and they are located from memory.
The same for allies
Green circle - allies in the radar’s visibility zone
Green triangle - an ally in “memory”
At the moment of the screenshot, the target is in the location “in memory”, so it does not have current speed data, but this page shows the speed, altitude and distance correctly.

Has a bug report about the slats for the gripen been sent in?
