Really doing my damndest to put GBU-40s on the Gripen.  First, let me show you why:

25066

 

With that for inspiration first, I programmed this loadout in the JAS39_LOADOUT.INI:

Quote

[Small Diameter Bomb Self-Escort]
Loadout[01].WeaponType=IRIS-T
Loadout[01].Quantity=1
Loadout[02].WeaponType=IRIS-T
Loadout[02].Quantity=1
Loadout[04].WeaponType=Meteor
Loadout[04].Quantity=1
Loadout[08].WeaponType=Meteor
Loadout[08].Quantity=1
Loadout[11].WeaponType=GBU-40
Loadout[11].Quantity=4
Loadout[11].RackType=BRU-61
Loadout[16].WeaponType=GBU-40
Loadout[16].Quantity=4
Loadout[16].RackType=BRU-61
Loadout[21].WeaponType=LiteningIII
Loadout[21].Quantity=1
Loadout[22].WeaponType=Gripen_Tank
Loadout[22].Quantity=1

Second, I went into the JAS39_DATA.INI and made a few changes:

Quote

 

[Station11]
SystemType=WEAPON_STATION
StationID=11
StationGroupID=3
StationType=EXTERNAL
AttachmentPosition=-1.833,-0.80,-0.44
AttachmentAngles=0.0,-0.05,0.0
EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-5.0
LoadLimit=1250
AllowedWeaponClass=BOMB,LGB,EOGB,MER,TER,TLR,LGR,EOGR,FT,ARM,ASM,ATR,DLP,NP
AttachmentType=SWEDEN,NATO,USAF,UK,USN,ISRAEL
ModelNodeName=L_PylonIn
PylonMass=72.58
PylonDragArea=0.02
LaunchRailNodeName=L_In_mrail
LaunchRailHeight=0.15

. . .

[Station16]
SystemType=WEAPON_STATION
StationID=16
StationGroupID=3
StationType=EXTERNAL
AttachmentPosition=1.833,-0.80,-0.44
AttachmentAngles=0.0,-0.05,0.0
EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-5.0
LoadLimit=1250
AllowedWeaponClass=BOMB,LGB,EOGB,MER,TER,TLR,LGR,EOGR,FT,ARM,ASM,ATR,DLP,NP
AttachmentType=SWEDEN,NATO,USAF,UK,USN,ISRAEL
ModelNodeName=R_PylonIn 
PylonMass=72.58
PylonDragArea=0.02
LaunchRailNodeName=R_In_mrail
LaunchRailHeight=0.15

 

So I'm a little, er, shocked I'm not seeing BRU-61 racks like above!

did you check nations in the BRU-61? it may help just to have it set with Sweden included

also whats the math on the bombs plus pylon? (looking at load limit)

sorry if not helpful, will check back later when can give more than a cursory glance (after work)

Thanks @daddyairplanes I just added Sweden and the math is below the mass limit.

Thanks @Wrench, the GBU-40 bomb set was.  I changed the BRU-61 rack to such. 

 

Really obvious the rack should always be available when the SDBs are too since I've never seen a single Small Diameter Bomb stuck to a jet but always with the rack.  See my panorama from an airshow with the F-22...

OK guys, I got somewhere close - heckfire I got an 85% answer to the problem.  Helps when I browsed the extensive forums some more... and found this thread with @FastCargo's answer to give me some ideas:

So from there first, I went into JAS39_LOADOUT in Notepad and added this:

[Small Diameter Bomb Self-Escort]
Loadout[01].WeaponType=IRIS-T
Loadout[01].Quantity=1
Loadout[02].WeaponType=IRIS-T
Loadout[02].Quantity=1
Loadout[04].WeaponType=Meteor
Loadout[04].Quantity=1
Loadout[08].WeaponType=Meteor
Loadout[08].Quantity=1
Loadout[11].WeaponType=GBU-40
Loadout[11].RackType=BRU-61
Loadout[11].Quantity=4
Loadout[16].WeaponType=GBU-40
Loadout[16].RackType=BRU-61
Loadout[16].Quantity=4

Second, I went into the JAS39_DATA and made a few changes...

[Station12]
SystemType=WEAPON_STATION
StationID=12
StationGroupID=3
StationType=EXTERNAL
AttachmentPosition=-1.833,-0.80,-0.46
AttachmentAngles=0.0,-0.05,0.0
EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-2.0
LoadLimit=1134
AllowedWeaponClass=ARM,EOGR,LGR,TLR
AttachmentType=SWEDEN,NATO,USAF,UK,USN,ISRAEL
ModelNodeName=L_PylonIn
PylonMass=72.58
PylonDragArea=0.02
LaunchRailNodeName=L_In_mrail
LaunchRailHeight=0.15

. . .

[Station17]
SystemType=WEAPON_STATION
StationID=17
StationGroupID=3
StationType=EXTERNAL
AttachmentPosition=1.833,-0.80,-0.46
AttachmentAngles=0.0,-0.05,0.0
EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-2.0
LoadLimit=1134
AllowedWeaponClass=ARM,EOGR,LGR,TLR
AttachmentType=SWEDEN,NATO,USAF,UK,USN,ISRAEL
ModelNodeName=R_PylonIn 
PylonMass=72.58
PylonDragArea=0.02
LaunchRailNodeName=R_In_mrail
LaunchRailHeight=0.15

Third, I went into the rack BRU-61 folder in Objects-Weapons to get the SDB rack.  Went in and added "SWEDEN" to attachment type:

AttachmentType=NATO,USAF,USN,SWEDEN

 

The final result as of 17 November 2018 that clearly at a later date requires some fine tuning:

      Well, I got an SU-30 and 35 and a Gripen and both share the same problem: they do a little turn to one side (in the case of the russian boys, to the right, in the case of the Gripen, to the left). I think it might be a FM problem.
      Does anybody have the solution for that?
      Thank you!

      View File SF2 Polish Air Force JAS-39E/F Gripen NG
      In 2014, the Polish MoD decided to replace the fleet of Polish Air Force's ageing MiG-29s, which were becoming more and more obsolete and not suitable with the requirements of modern combat. The new promising Swedish design of an upgraded JAS-39 was chosen and the deliveries began in 2018 with 64 aircraft purcahsed in total, both one- and two-seaters.
      That's the little background story. The mod itself includes the E and F versions of the aircraft. It is generally based on USAF Gripen NG mod by @dtmdragon which you can find here https://combatace.com/files/file/16048-f-39ab-griffin-blk-15-gripen-ng-for-the-us/?tab=comments
      The pack includes:
      JAS-39E
      22 Baza Lotnictwa Taktycznego (Tactical Air Base) skin with the "Knight flagship" paintscheme (aircraft no. 6036) 23 Baza Lotnictwa Taktycznego skin with the "Kosciuszko flagship" paintscheme (aircraft no. 6020) 23 Baza Lotnictwa Taktycznego special NATO Tiger Meet paintscheme JAS-39F
      22 Baza Lotnictwa Taktycznego paintscheme 23 Baza Lotnictwa Taktycznego paintscheme  
      All respective credits go to the creators of the original Gripen model, you will find the list here, many thanks to them: https://combatace.com/files/file/14351-tsf-saab-jas-39-gripen-flygvapnet-package/
      Important note: the aircraft in this pack DO NOT use 100% accurate Gripen NG models but rather modified JAS-39C/D. I am not a 3D modder and I couldn't make one myself.
      To install, unpack the zip archive and paste the contents of "to mod folder" folder into your game's mod folder. Read the Knowledge Base for more instructions. The mod was created and tested with the full 5 install of SF2 with the latest patch.
      You can use and distribute the contents of this mod ONLY as freeware. Remember to give credits to the authors.
