Gripen:

--- Quote from: Battlemike on September 18, 2005, 12:20:59 PM ---Sounds like the Greeks will end up with the F-16 or the F/A-18 ( I think those are the cheapest  to get their hands on) but the Grippen CAN DOG FIGHT within the level of the F-16, although the F/A-18 has better ground attack  and BVR qualities.Canada,New Zealand and Australia use the F/A-18 as an "air superiority" fighter (scary ,huh?), and until the JSF comes on line,you'll see more of those acfts in the world sales competition.While the Russians sale new to old stuff, Euro nations give ther ols stuff away and sell newer systems, the U.S. has a habit of trying to market it old stuff  ( stripped down) as if its a "garage sale"..... :(

the RAAF uses the Hornet for everything...its pathetic...i still think the Gripen is better then the Viggen...VIggen is being mostly retired is it not, while the Gripen is just coming into service...the Viggen is a good plane, but with everything, it gets old and the SAAB peoples should proud...
