This Gripen at 13.7 and seeing 13.0-13.3 is eating good right now
its only getting better for it once top tier moves to 14.7 or 15.0

Is there any numbers about the thrust increase ? I saw news about the modernized engine for gripen c/d but couldn’t find anything going in details.
When i fly a plane with BOL i use a macro that dumps ten chaff in one second with each click, makes it work like high caliber chaff. But i dont use those planes often because im worried it can get me banned lol
That does sound quite effective and would probably save me from breaking my keyboard :D
Though they really need to make it so that there is a setting to enable press & hold CM release

They have a setting for that with helicopters and its even more effective than a macro, its erroneously missing from planes, i made a report for it but it was ingored. Community Bug Reporting System

Not entirely sure, though it may be ignored as Gaijin has a balance that they want for the Gripens which is why none of them correctly represent any Gripen model in game.
If you really want answers I’d ask in a thread that has a Gripen that actually has money for upgrades or actual discussion.
Gripen E thread tends to divulged to the older models and some fairly knowledgeable people are in there.
I wonder if some of that info comes from R-Darter only being used on the Mirage which probably didn’t have data link. R-DARTER is literally a derby after all
It can’t “literally” be a Derby if it’s weighing differently. There’s some changes that differ the R-Darter from the Derby even though there’s significant similarities.
Except the brochure where they’re highlighting the weapon’s quality for export usage would show datalink then. Also, Croatia’s MoD did state that Derby had better export prospects over the Darter due to the fact that it included datalink.
In the manufacturer’s own brochure which thanks to Gunjob for including it in the thread, shows the missile diagram where there’s no datalink receiver shown:

2kg difference for something that looks like they just rounded on the brochure
You mean a Croatian magazine
Either way, manufacturer brochure shows that there isn’t datalink used in LOAL operation.

Who is using DL for the Darter anyway? Missile is barely effective at anything over 10k.
Sure if they rework it then great. Cant see it having a massive impact as the seeker is basically active at those ranges.
In theory, it would allow for a missile to be fired inside the radar FoR but outside the missiles FoV, like we should be able to do on the AMRAAM.
It is also usually a good idea to maintain DL in look down.
Thats fair, most cases im sending it head on Su-30 while cranking in hope to avoid there 77
