The JAS 39 Gripen's incapability

[Noexx_YT]

Alright, thanks bro

[dotSHINI]

i mean, what do you think how war thunder works
They try to replicate their real life capabilities. They dont give them imaginary armament slots

[Noexx_YT]

Fair.

@Noexx_YT

Allowing the Gripen to carry six RB 99 missiles, matching the loadout of the Eurofighter at 14.0.

Did it ever carry six RB99s?

@Noexx_YT

Adjusting the Gripen’s BR to reflect its current limitations, ensuring it does not frequently encounter vastly superior aircraft.

Have any particular BR in mind? Because i personally cant see 640x CM eurocanard with AMRAAMs any lower than 13.7 currently.

@Noexx_YT

Introducing the option for Gripen pilots to choose between an air-superiority loadout (more BVR missiles) or a multirole loadout (current configuration

What?

[Noexx_YT]

These are just ideas bro.

btw, you are aware the game has custom loadout options right?

[Noexx_YT]

Sorry for confusion

[Beeschurger]

Indeed they are but just like any other idea they can be discussed or criticized

[Noexx_YT]

Yes

[Noexx_YT]

I agree but sorry either way

[dotSHINI]

then i dont know what u mean with air superiority loadout.
Thats already in the game if you just take only air to air missles. multirole if you take both

[Beeschurger]

Look, currently gripen is in tough spot. Yes its kit is not as powerful as EFT but i dont think non-IRCCM planes should fight something that has AMRAAMs and 640x CMs.

Its compression issue.

(Inb4 BOL mentioned, @Morvran do your thing )

[Noexx_YT]

Alr

[Noexx_YT]

Fair enough.

[七-十三]

ATP the only viable solution is to just kill gripen C altogether and implement Gripen E beside decompression.

anw, BOL mentioned, go do your thing @Morvran

I don’t think that is physically possible, which is a shame. Youd need a lot of good sources to prove that, for example. We have multiple secondary sources for 8x AMRAAM fit for the Typhoon but it’s been denied so far.

@Noexx_YT

It’s as low as it can go, but the F15C needs to be moved up

Already is in game.

The buffs that the Gripen C needs is BOL overhaul, MAWS, centre line A2G, etc.

After that, they need to add the Gripen E

@Morvran

The buffs that the Gripen C needs is BOL overhaul, MAWS, centre line A2G, etc.

And agility that’s been put well below even the least charitable sources (with dubious provenance), and the fact that their consistency on g overload increases has been conveniently ignored for Gripen.

And even assuming all this was done, we’d still require gripen NG or gripen E to compete with other eurodeltas, and it really should have came when the others dropped but I would wager the spitting last time is why we do not have it.

[Morvran]

Yeah, the Gripen is almost certainly underperforming in that regard too

[Fluffy_Bucketles]

Favourite kit is Swedish. Just slightly peeved. But this is a losing battle on account of a minority of the minor nations, and what happened last time.

[Morvran]

Yeah, the fact that things like centre line GBUs still haven’t been added just shows how little they either care or how much they fear the Gripen being too good
