ValAstur Posted September 15, 2011 Posted September 15, 2011 View File [Fictional] SAAB/Mitsubishi JAS39EJ Gripen This is a mod of the JAS-39C from the Gripen Team to make it look like fighterplane from the japanese air self defense force. BACKGROUND: After having had good experiences during the first joint venture between SAAB and Mitsubishi and the high grade of acception of the japanese Draken by the JASDF-Pilots, the ministry of defense initiated a new joint venture. The swedish Gripen was now to be "nipponized". Pilots of the JASDF went to Sweden to fly the Gripen and push her to the limit, testing her capabilities. The Pilots were amazed how easy it was to fly the Gripen. Back in Japan, the Pilots reported their experiences to their superiors what led to an order of 120 planes, mainly single-seater. The first planes arrived during the first months of 2006, were they had to undergo changes in electronics, adapting them to japanese JASDF-Standards. The 8th Hikotai and the 305th Hikotai were the first squadrons receiving the Gripen. This plane was the first wearing the new JAMPAT-Camo in service. INSTALLATION: Simply drop the Folders into your Strike Fighters Mods Folder. CREDITS: VERY VERY BIG THANKS TO GUX FOR ALLOWING ME TO RELEASE THIS PLANE! Thanks to Brain32 for adapting the plane to SF2-Standards! ORIGINAL CREDITS: Model, Weps and Skins by Gux FM by Column5 Avionics by Moonjumper and Jat Testing by USAFMTL Enjoy...
