Not to mention new electronic suite, jamming and countermeasures, I.e; all the little hidden MODERN upgrades sure to be used in a real mission. Things that the russian counterparts are not able to compete with.
@@thunbergmartin I wonder if the Gripen E dedicated pod hard point can be used to hold a jamming pod like the ones on the Growler. Might not beat an f35 in jamming power but if it can jam its way in close enough, there's no dodging those Meteors. Maybe its own internal jammer is good enough, we know it definitely beats the Typhoon for that.
The jamming power of the internal system is better than F35. As I have understood it, F35 is to be upgraded to the same system that Gripen E uses. Speak volumes of the jamming power of the internal system😃
@@eriksvensson81 where have you gotten this information? From what I've read, the f35 jamming power way ahead of anything else and can do escort jamming with it's internal systems, rivaling and possibly even beating the growlers at jamming
4:43 Sweden & Finland are part of the five Nordic countries (Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, & Iceland). The three Baltic states are Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania (all joined NATO in 2004). Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany, & Russia all have coastlines around the Baltic Sea.
Love those Saabs. Small, lightweight, gorgeous design, smart electronics...like a 'sportcar fighter plane'. AFAIK it's pretty self-sufficient in the field as technician tools can be powered by it's own onboard systems.
And also such an effective and (relatively) affordable 4.5th-gen fighter. I don't understand why more European nations didn't choose the Gripen as their mainstay fighter. I think it would have been an ideal choice, seeing how in addition to the aforementioned advantages it's also made by a friendly European nation.
Sweden paused Gripen E to have SAAB put ASEA radar in the C/D fleet first, not sure if there’s room for the swashplate too. They also throw in more EW and improve engine thrust.
At the recent Singapore Air Show I had the opportunity to try out the Gripen E simulator at the Saab booth. The cockpit interface is completely touchscreen and the software is really smart. User-friendly with good indicators to help land and navigate.
Yup, was thinking the same - they may surround the Baltic Sea, but definitely not Baltic States. We'll allow our favourite flying American cousin the occasional slip-up on European geography. ;-)
Many interesting things are going up in this mission: there is still a possible situation in the modern warfare when a tail gunner still have a reason of existence; the other: the Meteor hasn't stolen and reverse engineered yet by other countries (it was possibly, but we doesn't know it yet as open as eg the Chinese remade Flankers or the Phoenix).
My favourite DCS channel, you keep the chat to minimum and the cinematics are on point, as a sweede its hard to not be partial when it comes to the JAS 39.... but i really think i would have loved the fighter even if i wasn´t. Long time fan.... long time, always fun and interesting content, bless you and yours
Much improved over the previous interception missions. Not so much because you won necessarily, but because you got into striking range before the enemy did. Granted, the meteors made it look easy, but this is what they were made for. Still, it would've been proper to hit the cruise missiles that did get lauched, just to further lower the enemy's chances of killing any friendly stuff.
Perfectly imperfect it is! Regardless the loss of a wingman. However, I think it should be the most challenging boss fight to do a MiG-29 or Su-27 vs Su-57 Felon, I suggest for the 103rd time GS. You made a great simmer!
Not exactly in missile tech but most definitely in missile range. The aim 120d seeker is still really good, it's still in the top 3 of not the best, it just has like half the range and pursuit capability of everything else. But yes, America does really need that new missile. Seeker kinda doesn't matter if you die before getting in range.
@@Rose_Butterfly98 we have just been focusing on weaponry for combating militias in the Middle East and not paying attention to the exponential growth in Chinese military strength
Great mission! Would've been fun to see your Meteors hit those two cruise missiles, and to see the Patriot missiles take out the other ones. Anyway, fantastic video.
Im from sweden and my teachers dad lead the project for the radar inside the gripen, that shows why my teacher is kinda smart cuz of his dad. It was one of the biggest projects for the gripen and it was very hard he said, I appreciate you're videos very much.
You should do a Tomcat BVR mission with a couple Phoenix's and AIM120 D's so the Phoenix can shove the bandit's face down and if he's still alive the AMRAAM will take car of it.
@@FuzedBoxyeah, a sneeze from the snotty noses of his wingman’s now fatherless children. A father gone with nary a mention of his digital sacrifice to the cause. Meanwhile, I bet GS starts dating his grief stricken wife. Oh that’s real nice!
And this was the C modell of Gripen!! very soon we in sweden has the much better E version, think it would be the best non stealth fighter jet on the planet??? yes i live in sweden.
Great vid mate. On the subject of being ableto outrange your enemy id be interested to see how an F14 with full phoenix loadout would fare in this situation. Do you think it would do well
I was wondering why you only shot 2 Meteors at the bombers. Did you only see 2 on radar? Love how the TU-95 has guns on the back, I still reckon bombers should have them and love the Gripen man, I wasn't ever a fan of delta wing aircraft but I now think they are some of the best looking and best fighters in the world. Loved the video champ and can't wait for the next one.
Meteor missiles is the shit! I like this, it’s emulating how Sweden would protect the Baltics. Now do Finland one with the f-18’s and one with coming F-35’s.😊
He tends to beat everything with the F-14 but I think it's in large part due to him being a great DCS pilot. The F-14 does have some advantages over the F-15 such as a more powerful radar and better turning ability at lower speeds.
@@Miratesus The F-14A radar definitely out-ranged the F-15A, but I've heard the F-15 was more maneuverable in close range fights. But If we're comparing the most recent versions available, I think the F-15 has the most upgraded radar between them at this point.
Here's a question I've been meaning to ask you for a while now. What's your opinion on the top 5 best Fox 3s? I have my own opinion, but I would love to hear yours.
Idk if you could do it in DCS or not but I think it would be sort of cool to try and do like an F-15 vs Su-30 or 27 or whatever planes but have the Americans use Russian missles and the Russians use American missles.
Any chance we can get the missions you show here on your YT channel? Even if they are rough and quickly built, it would be fun and great to modify and improve them

How about air combat tactics have changed over time.
Day 2, asking for an iron eagle series, where you do the f15 missions from the movies.
Imagine being THAT GUY who gets shot down by a tail gunner in this day and age. You'd NEVER live that down.
I could see in the future a backseater launching on a tailing plane. The F35 can allegedly do it.
Dead is dead YOLO
Never live it down mate? Well no. Cause he’d be dead.
Like an f22 by a chopper door gunner
Met a B-52 tail gunner when I flew through Barksdale AFB back in the 90s. I thought he was pulling my leg.

MORE GRIPEN CONTENT BABY!
gripen vs checkmate!
The Gripen is a lightweight jet with a super heavyweight punch.
YES PLEASE!!!
Gripen VS everything please. Gripen for the win.!!!
And more Eurofighter too!
Just imagine how capable the Gripen E is.
These only carry 4. The E carries 7.
Not to mention new electronic suite, jamming and countermeasures, I.e; all the little hidden MODERN upgrades sure to be used in a real mission. Things that the russian counterparts are not able to compete with.

7:05 My guy just Yeeted that fueltank into another country..
Wingman was a hero, managed to take out all of the escorting fighters.
We need more of the Gripens! In all seriousness, love the Gripen content, I’ve watched all of the Girpen videos multiple times lol. 🇸🇪
I liked the emotional moment when you grieved for your wingman. Very touching.
... anyway....
Calling the Nordic Countries that joined NATO "Baltic" made me react audibly. 😅😂
Ah shit lmao I knew that didn’t sound right
Tbf, they both border the baltic sea :P
@@GrowlingSidewinderwe love our Baltic brothers so its ok :)
Both Finland and Sweden border the Baltic sea. They're Baltic countries too.
Take out the base? Like, every highway in Sweden?!
Not just highways... you have to remove ALL roads in Sweden to ground the Gripens... :)

Love those Saabs. Small, lightweight, gorgeous design, smart electronics...like a 'sportcar fighter plane'. AFAIK it's pretty self-sufficient in the field as technician tools can be powered by it's own onboard systems.
For basic maintenance and resupply in the field you only need one highly trained specalist and 5-10 conscripts.

@@antred11 Mostly internal politics and NATO makes you choose US-made planes or thigns like Eurofighter.
@@csqd7445I mean it was literally stated as one of the reasons Denmark chose the F-35; the relationship to the US.
It’s been like over a year since you played any WWII fighters. Still consider them to be the pinnacle of air to air combat.
"Dump my meteors" is my new favorite euphemism
Another great video. I hope you do more with the Gripen, it’s my favourite fighter. I wish Canada had bought those rather than the f35s.
You shouldn't
Grippen is good, but it's 4th gen + at best. It's not even that much cheaper than the F-35
@@RazorsharpLT Its alot cheaper than the F-35, if you consider the operating cost afaik.
I’ve lived in Sweden, and I’m going there on vacation tonight! (I live in Europe, different time-zones) so this is really cool to see!
The gripen E (not sure about the others) has cheek mounted radar to help guide missiles in whilst in the notch.
Sweden paused Gripen E to have SAAB put ASEA radar in the C/D fleet first, not sure if there’s room for the swashplate too. They also throw in more EW and improve engine thrust.
Respect for old boy in the Gripen.
I can hardly wait for the next iteration of theAMRAM to come on line.
As well as NGAD

The Chinese reverse engineered the Python missile to make the PL-15. It also is in many ways similar to the meteor.

I don't understand why you didn't shoot 3 meteors initially
Couldn’t get a lock on all 3 of them, they were too close formation
Targeting issue then@@GrowlingSidewinder
Oh :(
@@GrowlingSidewinder Gripen / F-16 and Rafale don't have as powerful radars like Eurofighter and other US fighters so that's understandable.

Love the videos keep up the good work
Love the curvature on the inclination lines from the Gripen’s HUD. Phenomenal detail.
I don't know what it is about those delta wing fighters but they are just some of the most gorgeous aircraft ever flown in my opinion.
This is perfect example why America needs the JATM, all of these other countries have surpassed us greatly in missile tech

Huge Gripen fan. Thanks for creating.
I'd like to see you do this mission with the F-14 and Phoenix missiles. After all, this is exactly what their mission was.
The Gripen is such a cool little package.
The Baltic states have been NATO members since 2004. I think you meant Finland, it's sometimes considered a Baltic state but not always.
yeah Finland's never Baltic, not even Scandinavian. We're Fennoscandian and Nordic :D

@@IngemarLindvall Sweden forms the entire northern border of the Baltic sea, how could it not be a "Baltic State"?

This and the Rafael are my top 5 aircraft fs 😊😊
lol the sound of his wingman travels at the speed of light while the sound from the sonic boom travels at the speed of sound.
You should do a dogfight using the Gripen or Eurofighter and IRIS-T‘s

Nah, your wingman ejected. Send a recovery mission to get him.
Hi, small correction: Su-35S is Flanker M. Flanker E was the old version of the Su-35, the one with canards 🤙
At that point with the bomber crew going home kinda rude to shoot them down lol
I don't know why I first thought the Bears corkscrewing meant they were taking evasive maneuvers
The first hit Bear spiralling in flames with its nose wheel down -
"Do not worry comrades, we land no problem, soviet engineering is best!"
If you had fired an additional meteor missile initially, all three bombers might have fallen before any cruise missiles were launched.
I'm sorry, but Sweden and Finland, who joined NATO recently, are not Baltic States. Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are.
Geography for the win. They do touch the Baltic Sea, though, which is probably the source of confusion

I wonder what the TU-95s were thinking after catching a missle....."deploy landing gear".
Now that the word "Baltic" is thrown around carelessly - we need a Baltic Sea map!
Kaliningrad, Gotland, Åland and the Baltic states.
Was there some kind of tactical reason you didnt launch on all 3 bombers in that first salvo?
35 years of Gripen and 15 years of Su-35S in 2023 and 70 years of Tu-95 in 2022.
did those last 2 meteors hit any cruise missiles?

Amazing video. Would love to see more F-35 content ❤
How would this have differed if the Flankers had been toting R-37s?
Its about the pilots, its all about that,how it turn out in a combat.
Am I missing something with the bombers? Every now and then I see them with the nose gear down after they get hit? Is this a glitch or??
that wingman looks excited
