UK testpilots in JAS 39 Gripen.
Air Marshal:
JAS 39 Gripen is more Manouver able in its class. Really proud on it. :)
Gripen:
i cant work the British out. they are spending all this money on the Eurofighter, Gripen and the JSF. What happens when they get all of them ready for service? what do they pick as their main fighter/attacker whatever? one of the planes will lose out and they will have wasted billions of dollars on it! ???
Webmaster:
Nah, I think you misunderstood. The Gripen has only been selected for the test pilot school. BAE has or had (not sure the current status) a share in the Gripen, but that was only to earn some money because of its export potential. The JSF is a replacement for the Harrier, they want a STOVL aircraft. Typhoon will be the main fighter.
