i’m wondering since it’ll be the last swedish aircraft that sweden gets and it’s also my fav aircraft sooooo
The main improvement of the E variet is the engine, which finally brings the Gripens thrust to weight ratio above 1
I also believe that the missiles will improve in capacity by around 2-4 depending on how generous gaijin is
Better engine, AESA radar and two more missile pylons. The main upgrade of the E series is the extreme compatibility to the point where it can carry pretty much every single western armament, but it’s probably not that likely that gaijoobles gives us that.
How many bol rails does the gripen e get?
Same as Gripen C, the underbelly pylons can’t equip BOL iirc
Still plenty of CM, paired with a MAWS and the best sensor fusion in game
so the same as what the F15E should have, and half what the F15EX should get when its added
Darn, was kinda hoping for another fa18c situation where each pylon gets 2 bol rails. Still good, but not as OP as that one
Topic about the Gripen, not the EX, hurry off to the eagle thread
question about the number of BOL pods, and I gave an example of one with the same number and one with more
I could be wrong, or gaijin could do something random, but 640 + base CM count is still plenty, especially when they buff BOL to historical levels
Any mention of F-15s and BOL will derail the topic with braindead US mains, so please keep it to the eagle threads thanks 👍
