The ones that are older generations yes.
Chaika is the only biplane that works with the other inter-war aircraft.

I’m thinking gen 5 ends with rank 9.
Late gen 4.5s being part of rank 9 as well, with most part of rank 8.
Fifth gens are probably going to be spread between rank 9 and 10.Otherwise rank 9 would be quite congested.
They did the same with Mirage 2000-5F as well so I would not be surprised at all to see Gripen with only sidewinders.
This way Sweden will be fox-3 ready as well.
There aren’t many gen 4.5s & gen 5s.
F-35 will be the only gen 5 for most nations.
And AESA Rafale will be France’s only late gen 4.5.
I mean USA and USSR’s tree could get pretty congested if they add all the prototypes of fifth gen jets and 4.5 gen but it wouldn’t be the same for the others as they dont have that much 5th gen stuff to add.
but sweden already has a Fox 3 capable jet

I could definitely see that happening, it would give Sweden a 12.0 for now in a similar vein to the F-16A Block 10 with only AIM-9L and the some decent A2G armament as well.

Gripen-C?
@Deathmisser
A new rank is also every 3 years on average.
Rank 7 was honestly late for what it was. Should’ve included all MBTs from around 1980 in 2018/2019. Instead it was added in 2021.
@BearHasLanded Gripen with only 9Ls would be 11.7, and 12.3 is happening regardless.
if they add 5th Gen jets in 3 years and add the F-35 all together like they did the Starfighters then The Luftwaffe and warthunder players can at the same time get used to the new aircraft
So i’ve been busy spliting my time into grinding event, work and family(i know no one cares) so i don’t have much time to check the forum, do we got any leak/confirmation of Fox 3 for this update or nothing yet? Since they confirmed it for an future update i’m waiting for that
Nothing yet. No aircraft have been shown which might cause us to speculate further.
The F-16 with only 9Ls is 12.0 and their overall capabilities should be very similar, the Gripen and the F-16 have very similar design philosophies, so I don’t why it wouldn’t be 12.0 as well.
I also never said anything about 12.3, though now that you’ve brought it up I would expect the first 12.3 to be the F-15A coming maybe December this year but that’s just my own prediction.

Rank 8 November 2022
Rank 7 May 2021
So you wrong
it would probably be better in some aspects than F-16A
Gripen is slower, but more countermeasures.
Gripen has better low speed capabilities.
F-15C is coming regardless because of Japan, and can come at anytime.
@Deathmisser
Rank 6 was 2017. 2023-2017=6. 6/2 new ranks = 3.
And as proven with all 1980+ tanks going to rank 7, 2021 was well late for rank 7.
The K2000 is debated to be fox 3 capable however the IAF used it exclusively as an A2G platform and I don’t think there is any documentation of the loading the K2000 with AMRAAMs so it’s unlikely it will ever have them in game.
