The Gripen C and its Loadout for Sweden

Dev Server Seek & Destroy General Discussion - Dev Server

The Gripen C can Use any Nato weapon, That was one of its selling points when it was being sold to other countries. The Screen shot from (https://www.saab.com/globalassets/products/aeronautics/gripen-c-series/gripen_c_packing-iron) shows that the Gripen can hold all Air-Surface modern munitions in the western world and then some. The out come of this topic is just too allow the Gripen C too have IR guided Munitions that are currently in the game and maybe when the rest are added then allow the Gripen C to carry them, for ALL Gripens in all tech trees. I think gate keeping people that Grinded the Swedish tree from using IR guided Munitions isn’t the way I foresaw this game when it added the Gripen. I understand you want people to spend more time to spend more money on the game but I have spent my money and time for what I wanted and I got something that doesn’t even have Air-Surface munitions that are comparable to any other Tree (Im talking about IR guided ATGMs) Please allow AGM-65D/F/G on all Gripens not just the UK or Italy. Also allow the 5th Pylon (drop tank pylon) to hold a GBU just like in real life.

Swedish Gripen going to recieve AGM-65G models which is even better then D.

It was reported on British Gripen and all 3 models should recieve the missing 5th Pylon.

3

On Dev server they haven’t. The 65G is TV guided SAP-HE Is fine but I’d really want the 65G for the Heat and Range.

4

G models suppose to be IR guided, perhaps you’re confusing with H model?

5

The Dev G is TV, Might be a typo I think for Swedish Gripen C I’ll wait and see when it comes too live just wanted to make sure this point was brought up.

6

The one the Swedish Gripen has ain’t AGM-65G it is a Swedish modified Maverick with the SAP warhead but AGM-65A seeker

7

I just checked a video to see if i was wrong but looks like G models are IR guided while H models are TV.

Might be Dev Server bug tho.

Also on Dev Stream they showed that Gripen C had 65G armament on loadout options called Rb75T, did they removed it?

8

When I played it yes, The Dev server is down now I can’t even see anymore but when I played around with it last night it was TV SAP-HE

9

Shouldnt matter, like @CoochOG said the entire point of Gripen C was the able to use all types of NATO ammunitions which includes all Mavericks versions.

If Swedish Gripen lacks them it should recieve it.

10

Then i might confused G models with that Maverick, if thats the case then Swedish Gripen should recieve those Maverick models.

Did you made any bug report for this? It might be needed.

11

I’ll make a Bug report, When I confirm it when the Dev server comes back up it might of been updated and fixed. Thank you!

Yeah, this is a problem. They could resolve a lot of our cas issues by just granting us access to stuff that should be compatible instead of the Rb75t. Might be a little ahistorical for Swedish service, but that didn’t stop them giving other nations kit that wasn’t used.

they just gave the TV seeker instead of IR for some reason. And the 5th pylon cant have bombs still.

16

For obvious reasons wont be getting IRIS-T, Aim-9X, Python 5, ASRAAM or Meteor.

A-Darter is like 100G ARH. So wont be getting that. SAAF Gripen is getting R-Darter (which is basically Derby)

Swedish Gripen C has Aim-9Ms and Aim-120s. So it looks pretty accuarte so far.

As for the A2G options. They should get an equal/appropriate AGM. But I can also see things like Brimstones listed and Britain doesnt even have those yet

Thanks for the uptade, looks like we’re gonna need a bug report for that.

18

Lacks ground ordinance and 5th Pylon.

Not accurate enough.

19

Yeah, they all need that 5th pylon and needs a better AGM-65 Variant. But wont be getting things like Brimstone

20

You’re right, that thing is too advanced for now.

Wanna see that ordinance with Tornado Gr4 first actually.
