No, sorry… just the version with 3 mfd

I may have missed it, but is there a manual in English (joke) yet I’d like to know what the Russian text means.

Thanks.

No sorry, no manual, but if you just go over the knob, switch or annunciator pannel, you’ll have a tooltip showing you what that is

Hi! I´m a big fan of the Gripen and I can´t wait for the release of it to MSFS, it´s like a dream coming true! I have heard rumors that the Gripen C and the twin-seater D variant will be developed, is that true or is only the Charlie variant being developed? And btw, have you got any preview pictures to show? Will be an instant purchase for me!

Hello! Only C variant (3 mfd screens) and only single seat.

Soon some pics… still working on texturing.

Good afternoon!

Aa, I see. But any chance for a D variant in the future? Btw will a PSD paint kit be included so that you can make your own liveries? Ok, can´t wait for some pictures of the Gripen!

And sorry for the final question, but do you have any release date? You don´t have to be specific, I just want to know when you think it´s ready for a release. Will it go onto the marketplace?

Hello there! Sure any question is welcome!

  • D variant… not for the moment… i’ll see after release of the plane;

  • paint kit… sure, as for all my planes, just ask and i’ll provide it to you… the plane, for the moment, will be released with 3 splinter camo, 3 camo, basic grey, 3 apecial, the 211th tiger squadron’s liveries, brasilian’s one and some other one…if you ask me now some specific liveries i’ll provide it for the first release;

  • release date… still working hard on the plane to make it as best as i can, so not sure … as some one say… is done when is done… heheh

  • pics… once i’ll finish to create the final texture i’ll release some pics

Hi!

  • Okey, I understand. I wish for a D variant to come, maybe in the future.

  • Fantastic news! Great to hear! If you would like to make these liveries, these are the ones I like the most: 39210 - Painted in special colors to mark the anniversary of the F17 Air Wing (painted in golden colors with all its operated aircraft on the back and “1944-2019” painted on the tail).

And for the second livery, I thought of again 39210, but with its the newest livery displaying that it is the first Gripen to have flown 3000 flight hours.

  • That´s all right, take all the time you need! Just looking forwards to seeing the Gripen in MSFS :smiley:

  • And the last question, just wondering, will the Gripen have armament selections and weapons? Drop tanks, Air-air missiles, bombs, etc.

Weapons and armament equipment are not allowed in msfs, so just tanks for fuel (you’ll be able to drop when empty, or just deselect them… if tou drop them, holders will remain there) and on tips you’ll be able to set the smokers (RGBW) regarding smokes, you’ll be able to see different colors in Mp :wink:

Ok for liveries

Oh, okay I didn´t know that. But fuel tanks and smoke are good enough! And by smoke, do you mean smokewinders as shown in the picture above?

These will be the last questions I promise, sorry for asking so much!

  • Will the Gripen come with an FMS or G750 for navigation? Will it include an autopilot?

  • Are you planning on including static elements on the aircraft, such as a boarding ladder, wheel chocks, air intake covers, etc as you have done with the MIG 29?

Thanks for your patience and help with responses!

Is anyone having any issues with the parachute deploying?

Fantasic! The cockpit looks really good! And the attention the detail is simply amazing! :heart_eyes: However the canards movments seems a bit weird tbh, or it is just me? And btw do you have the breaking function of the canards inplamented?

1 Like

Yeah… the plane is still in wip, at the moment working on dettails.

  • canard movement corrected;
  • yes… canard has pitchdown action as airbrakes during lnding

I see. Great the hear about the canard-breaking function! And with the 39 still in WIP does that mean that you are also working on fixing the weapon’s pylons? The current ones look kind of weird tbh compared to the real thing. But I assume that´s still very much wip.
Another question is if you plan to include landing gear chocks, air intake covers, and pilot ladder as with your MIG-29? (Sorry for all the questions but I´m just so happy to finally see a Gripen coming to MSFS! First-day purchase for sure!)

If you are interested in doing that, here are some pictures I found:
