Gripen Vs Mig OVT

Gripen


Mig OVT:


p/s I still prefer Mig's to guard our skies..

Say good-bye to Mig-29N

It is Shock to hear that the mig going to retire. Maybe it is time to move on, the air force need more modern aircraft fighters such as…. Gripen?

Who knows? Checkout the video on Gripen.



p/s I m wonder about the fire weapons... if we buy Gripens could we have the thrust worthy missile as used with Migs such as R77?
