      Yes, you do (from a Norwegian brother) 👍. I learnt to drive on my father's 900 turbo during the 80s and when he got diagnosed with terminal cancer he got himself the last version of the 95 aero to go out with style. As I grew up in the Norwegian "mach loop" for fighters from all over NATO to train low-level mountain flying I was used to seeing everything (including B1 bombers with swept wings) it was always a hoot to visit Sweden during summer holidays and see Swedish friends belly-rubbing the landscape in Drakens and Viggens.
      The combined Nordic Air Force in 2030 (when we all have reached full operational capacity with F-35 Block 4 and Gripen E/D) will be a thing to behold. There are not many nations with less than 30 million citizens who can put >250 next-gen fighters into the air. (We are looking at 10 fighters per million citizens on average - to match that, the UK would need close to 700 gen 4+/5 fighters - they have 140, for comparison).

      American planes are the most "battle" tested and certainly the most used. All of the kinks have been worked out. So by default they're the best.
      Soviet planes used to be every bit the equal. Till the Vietnam war passed. Since then their planes haven't seen much use. No one else's has.
      That said the Russians, Chinese, Swedes, and the French so make good planes from the onset. They just generally don't get as much use to tighten down their final designs and productions.

      "Saab Draken (=dragon) was the first airplane to implement the Cobra combat maneuver. Credit were given to the russians, therefore its known as the Pugachev´s Cobra."
      That's because while Draken was the first CAPABLE of doing it, it wasn't until the MiG-29 and Su-27s much more advanced aerodynamically lifting body fuselages changed it from a novelty "thing" to something that could be used as a combat maneuver, or reliably at all, even by a regular pilot.
      If you go look at Growling Sidewinder's DCS channel, for his overall very amusing video of "what would really have happened in Top gun" with an F-14 facing a Su-57, that video has several excellent examples of maneuvers that fall, at least roughly, within the purview of the Cobra, as the Su-57 is even better at doing such extreme maneuvers.
      And if you look at his or others DCS channels, you will also notice that pretty much anyone flying Su-27 derivatives or the Su-57 will sometimes use the cobra as a very effective combat maneuver(effectively being able to pull your nose around to completely different direction, get a lock on and shoot a missile, and even if missing, get away with it without losing too much energy or making yourself a too easy target). While it's extremely rare for most other aircraft.
      This is because of how the aerodynamics of the current generation Russian fighters differs in the fuselage design, it's not only a highly advanced lifting body, but it also has much less drag if, for example, it hits the air moving horizontally, while in a vertical position.
      The engine nacelles among other things basically creates a virtual wedge, so instead of the fuselage and wings acting as one big scoop hitting the air flat, it acts more like a slight angle, greatly reducing how much energy is lost while performing such extreme angle maneuvers.
      So yeah, Draken could do it first, but the fact that it was relatively good at it was by accident, while for the MiG-29 and Su-27 and the likes, it is a deliberate part of the design.

      USA wont permit it. They HAVE to sell enough F-35s to not go totally bankrupt.
      Look at the Norwegian affair.
      Gods, it was absolutely ridiculous the level of dishonesty they applied to pretend that F-35 was cheaper. (as ordered by USA)
      F-35 at fly-away cost was put against Gripen with a 25 year service contract that included pretty much everything.
      And still only just barely managed to be "cheaper".
      And that's before even looking at how F-35 cost per flight hour is something like 4-6 times that of Gripen.
      Oh, i bet Norway is unhappy about that now that USA isn't delivering spare parts enough for even half the F-35s that exist, and haven't been able to deliver F-35s even remotely close to the numbers promised.
      F-35, 8% to 30% actual readiness and availability. When there's any F-35s actually having been delivered at all.
      Gripen, 75-95% readiness and availability.

We trust American presidents who don't like Putin. Or Orban, for that matter. Orban is the most pro-Putin European leader there is. I would not be surprised if Hungary leaves the EU sooner rather than later. So when we hear the American president to be praising Putin and Orban we know that we must prepare for war.

Let me explain it this way: the US are only now getting real life emission data from the Russians from the F-16’s Ukraine now fly there. It’s part of the deal. The idea is to build advanced EECM systems. They fool the radars to see nothing where there is a target by sending ”blank” back to the Russian systems.
      Sweden has sniffed that data since the 60’s.

(Evergrande) coinvested by swedes turned into NEVS that first tried reopen production of Saabs in Sweden, but failed. Then almost got an electric car out, but a production deal collapsed when the owner, a guy called Mohammed Jihad was accused of antisemitism. Now NEVS in Sweden and the Emily GT project is on ice/hibernation. NEVS in China is producing electric vehicles based on the the 9-3/9-5 platforms they aquired. The Emily GT developed by the SAAB engineers that transitioned into NEVS. Check out the test drive of that car if you want to see some innovation!

    India was looking at 114 Grippen NGs for it airforce as per an airforce official. However, the issue with Gripen is that it imports a lot of parts from a lot of different countries and hence cant provide the transfer of technology that India wants. Also, India is working on its own plane that will be comparable to Rafale's capabilities but with a single engine and canards like the Grippen. Currently SAAB is full on trying to sell this jet to India but French and Americans have more diplomatic weight.

    Best seller F35? If buyers knew what they were doing they would look at how many of the globes total fleet of F35s are combat ready. This would make F35 go down and JAS 39 Gripen become the best seller. Only 1/3 of the total fleet of F35s are combat ready. The other 2/3 are either grounded or in repair. So in a way F35s are already down.
