He doesn’t know what he’s talking about anyways, the F-15E and EX both got a brand new integrated EW suite
epawss?
Yep, that isn’t podded
Good Old British engineering
arent all the EW stuff made by BAE US part which is
- made up of US companies like LM Sanders which made 5th gen ECM suites
- largely employs US ppl since everything is made in US (they have 2 big EW factories there iirc)
- has a special agreement to seperate sensitive information (like EW suite stuff) from British one so they can be treated as a US manufacturer which they are in everything but name
What countries get the e? Just sweden, Thailand and Brazil?
It would be just Sweden and Brazil, Thailand hasn’t received any yet, that are working on getting them though, 4 are planned to be delivered 2029 and 8 more by 2035
We’ll have to wait and see what Gaijins stance is on stuff like that. We are nearing the point where this kind of thing will just come up more and more
Yeah, depending on where they stand with that, the sweds could get the IRIS-T SLM so other than some stuff loosing uniqueness I’m not too mad
Can’t wait for it to be added to everyone who could plausibly forsee acquiring it and Sweden getting only the NG the same update.
Yes, I am still bitter about how they handled its first introduction.
I was about to say the same no other nation need any gripen anymore everyone have something already gripen e should just be added for Sweden and if have to add for other add it in next major update after adding it to Sweden
Not just E but NG should also be added to Sweden tech tree.
With Gripen being buffed to can do rolling without skewing its radar (idk how it called lol), I really wish there’s another Gripen E for Britain, but unfortunately it seems Gripen E would only come to Sweden for a while (in the next update) lol.
This aircraft is so good at defensive flying due to how slow this aircraft is (compared to other European Delta Canards), but at the same time not as boat as F-18.
Slow? Even Gripen C with full loadout can reach 1400+km on deck brother, with JAS39NG/E it will become even better. I think you’re mistaken.
Well I had to add it, compared to other European Delta Canards of course.
It has better VnE and top speed than Rafale which makes me laugh pretty hard, i wonder when will Gaijin fix that issue.
