SAAF JAS-39C Technical Data and Discussion

After all, it has more mounting points than C.

Exactly, loved it when i learned what they did.

I think its safe to say its a new design.

True but you can achive similiar capabilities with double rack, kinda what they are trying to do with latest F-16 blocks.

They can’t simply upgrade earlier airframes to do so because of weight limits on some of the wings and pylons. Speaking more to the Gripen than the F-16 though.

I might worried gajin forgot Litening III from Tornado GR.4 instead placeholder targeting pod (Litening II)

Swedish Air Force never ordered Brimstone & SPEAR 3

From cdk file but now gajin not add AIM-120C-5

Coming to sweden tech tree coming to 2027 or 2028

Saab have already integrated Brimstone and Spear 3 onto the Gripen E. Sweden is already looking for a long range strike option, with budget available for purchases in December, and is probably going to buy Spear 3 (or a mix of Spear 3 and Brimstone 3) as the UK MoD and Sweden are jointly developing an EW/Decoy version of Spear 3 a kin to ADM-160, Spear EW

Glorious.

I wonder how these will fair in game later. Carpet-bombing enemy spawn with a 4x4 grid from 20km away seems… you know… rude? x)

Based on the BOW document, if Gripen has C-D band extension installed, it would also have K band, as they are part of the same upgrade.

Wut.

Jas39’s RWR can even identfiy Zsu’s in real life, how come ground units displays as AAA/SAM on RWR?

Dunno

@Gunjob did you guys passed bug report based on informations that @MiG_23M shared?

I was waiting on a link with the information all gathered and submitted to the CBR. :)

I see, so RWR hasnt recieved its full capabilites yet.

Do you think there will be enough time before update drops?

Its got a bunch of threat ID capabilities now, maybe not all of them. Just get the report logged and give me a poke. :)
