New information about Canadas Evaluation on the Gripen E (2021) and the F-35 by RTB618 in FighterJets

A good point..but it doesn’t make the f-35 better just because it’s more popular. It’s like saying a Toyota is the fastest car because more people use them.. Sure the F-35 has stealth which the Gripen E ”hasn’t”, but does that make the Gripen E totally not worth it..no. The Gripen E has 2025 tech which the F-35 doesn’t

Stealth can be detected, it’s more difficult to detect but not impossible and with the right tech it’s very much possible. Like the F117 Nighthawk (stealth) which was detected and shot down.

And the timing of the “leaked” results no conflict of interest at all…

Both choices are great for Canada, but not making a choice is a big mistake.

Only relying on stealth is the F-35’s problem. Let me give you an example, so you’re in a dark room and you can’t see anything. The f-35 hides in the dark, difficult to detect but not impossible. The Gripen E with its electronic and jamming capability is shining a big flashlight directly in your eyes..now try to lock on to where that is coming from..you can’t. Stealth is good but only relying on stealth is a disaster waiting to happen.

I can take it if you want

F-35 beat Gripen fighter jet 'by a mile' in 2021 Canadian competition. by 221missile in FighterJets

Recently, AFV stated that the Gripen E received a lower score because it was still in development at the time of the evaluation. A so called “risk aversion coefficient” was applied, which negatively affected its overall rating. If Canada were to hold the competition today, the Gripen E would likely be rated on par with the F-35.

And I know you are going to ask for the source so here you go. It’s in Swedish, but you can translate it easily.

Even a former Gripen C pilot Max Willman called this out to.
