Juat to add ive seen more british players report changes for the gripens then any of the swedish lol but not like theres much to report on the A.

I think that is partially because if it is already reported on the British version they are going to mark any report on the same issue for the Swedish one as a duplicate (unless it has to do with loadout and version specific things).
also, is there a way to look at all the reports made compiled for each version?
About ~15 open issues right now. All of them impact all Gripens bar one or two specific to 39C

Is the 39C center pylon bomb reported? I forgot if it was done or not.
Yes, I did that one during the dev server.

is there a way for us players to filter the issues page by vehicle?
(if not there really should be, it would make it WAY easier to not get as many duplicates)
(to add to that, filtering by type of bug would also help, like “sound” , “graphics”, etc)
Not that I know, I’m at the mercy of how good the search is internally as much as players are with the CBR.
Couple more searches yield around 20ish reports, found a few more looking for just the 39C.
okay.
i just looked and there is a dropdown menu for type of bug, but you can’t add several filters at once.
i personally think it would make a huge difference to be able to filter the site by vehicle as well as other categories at the same time (i.e: several filters working at the same time to get very specific results).
that might also help you tech mods in the long run because then players who report bugs also have to choose what vehicle it is about (or if it is a general bug).
Yeah just look for bug reports for the C there is like 1 report for rhe A lmao. I think the wrong bomb information was denied for the A but i dont remember the specifcs for it.
The bug report website certainly is one of the most annoying websites to use I think i have ever encountered. It could really do with an overhaul

Probably a silly question, but what is Gaijin going to do with the SAAF Gripen C variant when the promised Swedish Gripen C comes next update with presumably Fox-3 missiles (perhaps a big assumption but why else the delay in delivering it) . Will the SAAF version get a new missile, a whole new variant or something else? Would be a bit weird to have 2 C variants that are different.
Based on the dev server Fox-3 test it will come with the SA native(ish) missile the R-Darter. No need for a new vehicle in that instance.

Er.
The elephant in the room right about now:

ill be honest it seems gaijin is skipping the “lower quality” FOX-3 carriers and associated missiles and just going full hog from the get go.

I dont really see why they would. And we kinda need them.
Im guessing Gripen with R-Darter/AMRAAM will be higher than its current BR, so its just gunna make the massive gap between the 11.3s and tenatively over BRed Gr7 at 11.7 and ARH armed Gripen which will probably move up to 13.0 or higher.
Unless they are happy with nothing for Britian within that gap, we will need something and native ARH carriers will fit that gap nicely
Sea Harrier FA2 at 12.3
Tornado F3 AoP at 12.7
Chuck in the Harrier Gr9A and Tornado Gr4 and we have a really good line-up between 12.0 and 13.0
besides. FA2 is all but in game, just need the AMRAAMs.
Thanks! That justifies me grinding the SAAF one with my Tornado F3 even though I already have the Gripen A in Swedish tree.
Tbf i don’t want low br AMRAAM carrier’s. I’ve argued with people on this but i dont want to fly a phantom or a viggen at 13.0 because i have AMRAAM’s thats just a tad bit silly.
It’s a compression issue at its very core, but I just dont really see an alternative, unless AMRAAM are absolutely insane and impossible to defend against, I dont think it can be helped.
Besides, Im only expecting sub-sonic AMRAAM carriers to 12.3 everything else 12.7+
Sea Harrier FA2 can in theory run 4x AMRAAM, but thats it, no guns, No IRs. most will probably run 2 or 3 AMRAAM and 2-4 IR Missiles. AV-8B+ is about the same 2-4 AMRAAM and 2-4 IR.
Sea Harrier FA2 is literally a Sea Harrier FRS1, with a better engine and the radar we have now in the Gripen. It wont be like it is now with F-15As being downtiered and being totally OP or how it was with the F-16C and unlike before as well, FA2 would have an equal chance of facing 13.3s as it does facing 11.3s. So it wont be 100% downtiers all the time for it.
Overall, it shouldnt be that big of an issue, but aircraft like the FA2 would be totally DOA much higher than 12.3. If it wasnt for the AMRAAM, if it had Skyflash instead, it would probably be a 11.0. 12.3 might even end up being too high for it, we’ll have to wait and see
I mean neither do I but the SHAR would constantly suffer. It cannot get that launch velocity that other aircraft have, thereby handicapping it’s range.
which it compensated with IRL by just flying much higher than everything else, but even in SB, it would likely not be able to exploit that IRL strength, maps are too small
