Not a complicated question i just wanna know waht country i should grind for the Gripen, Personally thinking about either Britan Or Italy, i also like to consider other top tier planes that the nation has.
Thanks

I think the UK EF-2000 is pretty buggy if you are considering other planes in the TT. Other than that the Gripen in the UK tree uses R-Darter rather than AIM-120s so it’s probably worth looking into how they compare with each other.
Japan gets a good line up of 13.7 planes alongside their Gripen but lacks a top BR aircraft

If you want to access more advanced Gripen in the future i recommend Swedish tech tree.

Sweden will most likely receive Gripen NG or E model with next uptade, or can receive both in order.

Britain would probably be the best option in terms of future additions thanks to India and South Africa. Italy is fine rn but may not be getting as may vehicles in the future. And Japan’s only real disadvantage at the moment is lacking a 14.0 or 14.3 which they could get soon thanks to probably getting an Indonesian subtree.

If you just want to try Gripen, no matter what variant, you should probably go with a TT which you’ve already grinded the most or maybe in which you have some premiums. The fastest way if all three nations haven’t been touched by you before will probably be Sweden, since it has only 4 lines compared to 5 for Italy and GB. Although I would recommend to also look at planes in-between, just spend some time looking at stuff in hangar at least)

Thanks alot if I do grind Britan would you say I should buy the Bison or the F-18

I haven’t flown any F/A-18s or the Bison so I can’t give you a good answer to that sorry, I do like the Mig-21 air frame… but I have no idea how well it holds up at that BR. Hopefully someone else here has flown both and can give you a better answer.

Great Britain, for Gripen may be not the best option for a JAS 39, South Africa operates the JAS 39C, the best addition is the JAS 39D double-seat variant, whereas Sweden has greater chances to get JAS 39E and perhaps JAS 39F latest variation, Italy has a small chance to have JAS 39E or JAS 39F in form of the Brazilian F-39 aka JAS 39E, but considering that Italy has Eurofighter 2000, the chances of this happening will always be small.

Depends, since you have some interest in other planes as well the UK has an amazing selection of different top tier jets. If you just want a gripen then go sweden. Its a fast tree to research and you have the best chances of always getting the best gripen version possible

Sweden (obviously) or italy, sweden of course youll likely get the gripen e and (maybe) gripen ng aswell. And for italy its the exact same as the current gripen c in the swedish tree except they also have more variety for other toptier jets, (typhoon, tornados, mig 29, f16, harriers)
