SAAF JAS-39C Technical Data and Discussion

Exactly as Flame said, the 45deg +/- is only the search area for the various ACM type modes. Was just a mistake by the Dev and will be fixed in the next micro update.

Will the C also receive the additional bomb pylon usage from the two center pylons? I k ow the issue was marked as acknowledged last time but i was wondering if that would be fixed soon.

Don’t have any time scale on that sorry.

All good

Heard anything about BOL recently?

Arebwe talking about the ahistorical nerf?

yep, at least when it comes to the luminosity nerf. Burn time reduction is fine, though annoying

İs there any new information about Gripen’s HMD?

Also to my knowledge they shouldn’t all fire at once but i may be wrong, its been a while since i read the swedish gripens pdf

Yeah that was another change gunjob challenged. In essence their only interest was stopping people from using periodic release to make themselves immune to IR missiles. So now you need 4x the CMs to defeat any missiles, you cant pre-flare using BOL and everytime you hit the button you dump loads of CMs

Ah yes but leave all the other bol users untouched, id be fine if they were consistent with these nerfs, also the countmeasure pods should be able to be mounted with skyflashes as the swedish ones were.(not that anybody uses them)

All BOL got nerfed. Which is what sucks the most about it. F3 and Gr7 are kinda suffering at the moment with such weakened CMs. In nerfing the Gripen, they did MASSIVE collateral damage

Yep, I think that is another report

İ disagree.

Tornado F3 is the most effected vehicle by this nerf, it needs all the helps it can get against multiple players.

Regardless, ahistorical nerfs shouldnt be taken to the gripens level cause ill just keep absusing the f14B which why hasnt it gone up? I can literally keep up with a mig 29 (which isnt very impressive) in a turn and i carry a lot more scary weapons. 12.3 at the minimum pls.

Mentioning the f14 cause idk why but i seem to have a much easier time losing ir missile lock on me in that then the gripen. Idk maybe just luck.

Besides im assuming this bol nerf will stay going into the future for newer vehicles that also run bol? I guess when we see nore nations get vehicles with bol maybe they’ll change it idk.

Yet it outaccelerates,outclimbs and outspeeds the F-14, just because you can keep up in rate fight (which F-14B’s stronger point) doesnt mean its a better plane when it comes to flight performance.

R27ER alone itself is enough to make Tomcat missiles useless.

Aim-9L’s are better then R-60M’s but R27ER beats both Phoenix and Sparrows easily.

Probably, but what they need to do is totally overhaul how BOL is modeled because its not actually flares

But i can fire four aim 54’s then keep two IR’s and two sparrows. No point in having a different loadout more often then not.
