    The Gripen is without a doubt THE most fun ruining plane at top tier in sim. In this video I removed some kit I deemed OP in an attempt to balance the plane. Enjoy! :)

    8:30 the reason it "didnt want to point down" was because weather by accident or on purpose youj switched the SAS from Damping to Automatic leveling.

    I thought the gripen was over performing but after I put a complaint on the forums, I checked for other complaints and MIG-23M (a player) gave gaijin evidence for the gripen to be nerfed which it ended up getting like 2 weeks after thr patch being dropped, then It got tweaked, so atm the gripen in real life has a sustained turn rate of 23° at 350 knots, sustains around 8G's, and the gripen has very similar flight performance, and it has a positive aoa limiter, so after all that, the gripen is pretty accurate, the main counters, will be the F-16A/C, F/A-18's, Euro fighter typhoon, and the Rafale.
    Three of these are ofc not in the game yet, but I've done my research, and all these aircraft are competitive against the gripen's

      That’s what wiki and other sources that just copy paste this information say, if you check real military sources(South African for example) there’re a lot of unclassified documents that say that it has 12deg/s max sustained turn with normal loadout and its performance is much closer to the M2K than to the F-15/F-16
      And basically if you really want to do some research you can do some calculations using Prandtl-Betz-Munk formulas for drag and lift and according to the numbers you can do even deeper calculations for deceleration/acceleration at any speed and AoA(1 - sustained turn at current speed and AoA, 1 - deceleration while turning) and you will never get sustained turn rate even close to 16deg/s for this plane

      There is no source that claims that Gripen has a sustained turn rate of 23 degrees per second.
      At best the SAAB pdf on designing the Gripen can be interpolated to be around 20 degrees per second.
      And that has nothing to speak of the SEP values of the Gripen. The airframe itself retains twice as much energy over basically anything else while max pulling in the initial turn.

    Why is the JAS-39 so OP in warthunder? Summary: 720 flares makes you invulnerable to any enemy IR missile and you can auto spam them for a good long while, Aim-9Ms cannot be seen and you waste all your flares trying to flare a missile you can't see or pick up on, Best flight performance on an IRCM missile carrier, and RWR contact doesn't reveal who you are so the enemy doesn't know you're a Gripen. In a nutshell, its the F-16C but better in every way

  • @r1pper_r00
    @r1pper_r00 5 месяцев назад

    About your fight with that MIG-29, I think it might be a case of the MIG underperforming rather than the Gripen overperforming: the german MIG-29 should have a slight STR advantage over the Gripen (approximately +1°/s at 50% fuel and 15000 ft according to an Aermacchi chart; the Gripen EM diagrams are not available yet). The F-16 outrates both, but (as you said) only if kept at a specific speed range as its higher wing loading gives it problems at very low speeds. In terms of ITR it's Gripen > MIG-29 > F-16, which again makes me think the MIG FM should be buffed a bit. The drag might be correct as it is: the Gripen achieves M1.05 with six AA missiles without afterburner and its close-coupled canards improve lift generation, thus reducing AOA in high G turns and bringing lift-induced drag down compared to a regular delta.

  • @Sky_King7
    @Sky_King7 6 месяцев назад +1

    the BOL pod nerf was good, the one circle performance is (I think) believable. it is a delta wing after all. what I find hard to believe though, is that this thing also can out rate a viper. even with canards, that just doesn't seem right.

  • @jordancourse5102
    @jordancourse5102 6 месяцев назад +8

    The FM is the problem. I have the 39C and its energy retention is too good. It’s almost as if its drag is very low. Surprisingly you don’t see a lot of decent or good Gripen pilots. A decent Gripen pilot can just dog walk everything….

    i understand its tough for you guys in sim but gaijin should not do an ahistorical nerf just because some players got killed. yes it might be unbalanced but top tier is always unbalanced, its just how it works in war thunder. soon something else will come and the gripen will be forgotten about. if you want the gripens performance nerfed, get some info on it and do a bug report. the gripens flight model is the most discussed flight model on the forum and no one can prove that its overperforming.

  • @EggSaladSammich

    What i dont think is that the gripen needs a nerf as it will get overshadowed eventually and is the last plane of the swedish tree and will be FOR A LONG TIME
    This said what do i propose? Buff the F-15 and SU-27. Right now in game the F-15 has only 80% of its thrust and the Su-27 not having all of its lift.
    You dont need to nerf the gripen to balance it, simply buff the other planes to their irl stats so that way they are all strong and competitive in their own strengths and abilities.
    Once Fox-3s come the F-15 will be a BVR BEAST, same with the Su-27 but with a niche ability for having decent dogfighting, then the Gripen would likely have less BVR aspects but be almost untouchable in the dogfight if flown by a skilled pilot
    This will balance the gripen by making everything strong in its own way instead of the meta being gripens flying 10 meters off the ground then dogfighting the entire enemy team because their radar missiles cant do anything

  • @dan_halfsvear
    @dan_halfsvear 6 месяцев назад +2

    As someone else mentioned. If you look at Gripen in airshow and aawell as public stats released for sales/purchases: Gripen is supposed to be this OP. Let it be as it is. Long range missles can switch the meta and then faster and more powerful aircrafts can rule higher altitude. F35, F22, SU57 will also change things in terms of slow speed fights. Tho Americans claim that in 1 on1 close dogfight the F16 wins over F35.
    I don't get the mentality of that the minor nations always have to be crapped on. Was the same with JA37 and Mirages, ppl were whining so much for nerfs instead adapting so the Aircrafts got nerfed to hell. It's seems only American and USSR aircrafts are allowed to be good in some peoples mindsets.
    I'm really surprised your on the nerf train. You seem to be a good sim pilot. Just learn to deal with it instead of sounding like a butthurt brat
