As Swede this is really cool to here. Those planes are not great though, but hopefully they'll help!

What's wrong with the gripen? The bar shouldn't be that high if it's compared to soviet era equipment.

Compared to American planes, they're lacking in every aspect except price. But that's probably true, compared to the Russian planes they're probably very good haha
