The key to operational effect is to get fighters airborne when needed. That’s why Gripen is designed to make sure that availability is maximized at all times. A Gripen force can operate from small airfields or even highway when no runways are available. For instance, Gripen can operate from a road strip of only 16 x 800 metres. In this film you will get more information what makes Gripen always combat ready.

Instead of the F-35 you can get Gripens for your whole family and still have money left over.
We were convinced to buy this as a security feature for the summerhouse. It looked so cheap compared to alternative 5-th generation fighter jets. (Also you can use your golf course for a runway!) The maintenance is really simple, you or your gardener can do it on site, without constant negotiation for spare parts with a dealership like F22 or need to decipher russian manuals (a nightmare!) as for a MiG . Also, as all Swedish vehicles it has every possible safety feature including child seats as a standart! We were quite happy with it for about a year, its really great for obliterating privacy invading drones and tacky annoying hot air baloons. but now we have grown some ambitions of power projection and its range of 3000km's feels really limiting as it does not have carrier compatibility! My verdict: Quite good as your first fighter jet. but lacks in stealth and upgrade capabilities. 8/10.
"Did you find this review helpful?" Yes.
I highly recommend the F-18 Super Hornet, though not as comfortable it's a great second plane. With plenty of range and carrier compatibility. You will to go anywhere in the world. You also will have more pilons for all of your needs. From Air to Air to Air to Ground. Honestly a great second plane if you ask me. 9/10
thanks i almost sank all my money into the F-16
It does have upgrade capabilities though. But it lacks a cupholder so it's still only 8/10

I assume the F-16 actually can land on somewhat messy airstrips but the decision is made to not do that to save on the engines. Much like how the swedish air force obsessively cleans their airstrips so that the engines wont wear more than necessary.
@@Devantejah Perhaps... I just remember when I was on air show and I fell down laughing when I saw truck sized vacuum cleaner that was bought just for few F-16s we have here in Poland. Apparently MiG-29s didn't require something like that, as even when they were used for far longer than they should, engines themself were fine. It's just everything else was falling apart and ejection seat tended to fail... And now Poland is gonna buy like 32 F-35As for 150M$ a pop while they were offered pretty much every NATO fighter meant for export, including Gripen (that I like) and cheap used F-16s (that we have pilots for)

On the Saab 35 Draken installed licensed English Rolls-Royce Avon. The Saab 37 Viggen was equipped with the American Pratt & Whitney JT8D (Volvo RM8). These engines are easier to develop and produce than the F404. It turns out Sweden and previously could not master their engines for fighters.

Love the bit about "conscript mechanics". Thanks for that clarification.
It really shows who that plane is made for- small armies with small budgets and with small enemies
Saab commercials in 2003 "Born from Jets" Saab commercials now "Jets" Also now I know how to spell Gryphon in Swedish. Thank you Saab. It makes sense that they'd name their best jet after their logo. They have another jet called the Drakken. No points for guessing what that translates to
And it´s pronounced Griiipen, not Grippen. And Draaaaken isn´t pronounced Drakken either. But we spell it Gripen and Draken (and Viggen, which was the predecessor of Gripen, but there you might guess the pronounciatipon?), just to confuse

Naglis sul not ours CAUSE OUR SWEDISH GRIPEN IS BETTER THEN YOU
Except ours, they were stupid enough to believe Trump and purchased the inferior and more expensive F-35
The US has a huge budget, plenty of trained technicians and no conscripts, so they work from that. They have the most sofisticated, but also delicate, planes. But that does not matter when they can operate from carriers or land bases far from the conflict zones. Russia meanwhile make more rugged planes, their planes would not mind using a grass airfield (with all the debris that comes with that), so it is virtually impossible to destroy their infra structure. Sweden had a conscript military when Gripen was designed, planned to use road as runways (as shown in the video) and as always, keeps a middle ground. But more importantly, Sweden has very few people, so the ground crew (regardless if they are conscripts or full time engineers) has to be small,. and we are better off with two small single seaters than one double seater. So there are differences in how different countries have built their air force. I suppose Sweden has good value for money, Russia has things that are rugged and tough while the US does pack the most punch (until they break down for lack of spare parts).
One of the WORLD'S BEST!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Dude! Great point. Its not only about what the plane can do performance wise but supportability, and upkeep plays a huuuge part in longevity also!
