in this year’s Farnborough Air Show, the Swedish Saab company always sent its flagship boutique JAS-39C Gripen fighter. The Saab Gripen on display in two forms, aircraft, placed an outdoor 1:1 JAS-39C full-size model, together with all external weapons, is also on display in the room to reduce the small percentage of JAS-39C model. Weapons from the mount point of view, C-type Gripen already has long-range precision-ground attacks and sea standoff precision strike capability.

JAS-39 Saab represents the latest in fighter development level, although the international positioning of the Gripen fourth generation in the three generations of machines and machine between the fighters, but the Swedes thought that Gripen is a complete fourth-generation fighters. A small country can have such confidence in Sweden also fully demonstrate the strong research and manufacturing capabilities. Saab’s latest “Gripen NG” multi-role fighter technology demonstrator has been completed on the first flight on May 26.

Gripen canard aerodynamic configuration is similar to F-10 aircraft with China, the spread of information from the Internet point of view, F-10′s weight and size larger than the Gripen, F-10 used in the thrust areas of Russian-made AL-31FN engine, normal to thrust 77 kN, 122.6 kN afterburning thrust can be achieved. Gripen use General Electric F404-400 engine derived from the improved RM12 engine, the normal thrust of 54 kN, plus pushing to 80.5 kN. When comparing the two F-10 force to be stronger, but the weight of the F-10 larger volume than the Gripen, the overall thrust of the same. China F-10 aircraft in the weight and volume in the medium to be more receiver aircraft, the Swedish JAS-39 is a complete light aircraft.

Saab Gripen project in the very planning of its development is to develop a one-term improvement program since 2002 on the development of the Gripen was then known as the super plan and step by step implementation of its results “Gripen NG” multi-role fighter technology demonstrator has been open on April 23 this year, the external display. The next step is to use this new technology demonstrator test new features, so that the upgrade program matures, as the active Gripen improvements to provide reliable technology, but also for potential customers to develop new super Gripen basis.

power increased dramatically

“Gripen NG” multi-role fighter technology demonstrator in a JAS-39B two-seat combat trainer based improved on. Little change in overall shape, mainly the new F414G replacement of main landing gear and improved launch, the new engine’s thrust up to 96 kN 25% higher than the active RM12, thrust-weight ratio increased to 9. Increase is pretty large. (Sweden, the United States can not help transport the gang busy Sweden, developed the engine can not directly buy on line, China has no such advantage in this regard can only be developed on their own.) Main landing gear of the main improvement is to increase the spacing, change the internal structure of the wing, fuselage fuel tank capacity has increased, making the increase in internal fuel capacity for more than 35%, greatly increasing the aircraft’s combat radius, while enhancing the ability to plug the whole machine up 10 weapons hardpoints increase than before three.

AESA will give their overwhelming air superiority

Gripen NG aircraft development of the world catching up with the latest trends, verify the latest AESA Active Phased array radar, once this major technology validation, the new Gripen will be able to more quickly search a larger area, which in modern air combat aircraft fleeting extremely important. Meanwhile, the system can also be active against enemy radar and passive electronic reconnaissance electronic interference, in addition to increased sea-surface target tracking capability.

superior weaponry

“Gripen NG” multi-role fighter technology demonstrator in the use of weapons will have more choices, the aircraft will assume the European Meteor, IRIS-T US-made precision-guided JDAM bombs, and other types of advanced weapons of the world’s major test, you can imagine the future of the real Super Gripen will have an extremely powerful attack.

F-10 to improve China’s Inspiration

contrast Gripen upgrade F-10 aircraft China plans to upgrade improvements has kept our attention, because the domestic mechanism strictly confidential We can not know the specific progress. Gripen NG, but the project will no doubt be revealed Chinese F-10 improvements. Voyage mentioned process, the diversity of weapons, the diversity of tasks, as well as the majority of users are most criticized of the inlet of the top six ribs can all be removed to improve the F-10 to be reflected. AESA rumors that have been made into the pilot phase, the engine is also modified so the line tension test. Of course, these no one can really now prove the authenticity. F-10 coming for a long time would be the main equipment the Chinese Air Force active duty, so F-10 improvements must be stepped up to accelerate. Sweden has such a small country achievements, as major powers should catch up. (Tito)
