New stealth fighter sighted! Maybe?



From The Aviationist.

What could this be?  An old concept brought back from the dead?  A movie prop?  Turkey's stealth fighter?  A rejected JSF concept?

Whatever it is, it sure is interesting!

THE REAL REASON THE GRIPEN LOST...

Image
  For those of you wondering how Saab lost the FFCP competition, new information has come to light... According inside sources, the initial scoring of the two fighters was incredibly close.  The F-35 did indeed win the "Capability" category (worth up to 60%) while the Gripen E ended up being ahead on both price (worth 20%) and industrial offsets (worth the remaining 20%).   According to my source April Furst, who is currently serving an internship in the House of Commons.  The ultimate decision was made rather hastily while the final scores were being tallied up.   "Due to COVID restrictions and renovations, the FFCP committee were forced to convene in a remote office located in the basement of the Parliament building.  You could tell it wasn't used very often.  Lots of cobwebs, and the whole place smelled musty and moldy.   "The committee members were doing their thing, going down each individual line of the respective offers.  It was actual...

Fighter Jet Fight Club: Gripen NG vs. Super Hornet!

I will be honest...  I have been dreading this installment of Fighter Jet Fight Club.  I tend to root for the underdog in any competition, but what happens when underdogs have to compete against each other?  Both of these aircraft have a 0-2 record for FJFC, yet both are clearly crowd favorites in the comment section. Our contestants today are two of the biggest value propositions in the fighter world today.  Both are "modernized" versions of aircraft that have been flying since the 80s.  Neither make promises of being the most dominant force in the skies, but they do promise a "90%" solution at "50%" of the cost.  Most importantly, both aircraft are "tried and true" designs that have provided years of faithful service.  Despite this, they are often overlooked in favor of newer, flashier aircraft like the F-35 Lightning II. Which aircraft will see redemption here today? Just remember the rules . Air-to-Ground: Infiltration/Pe...

Fighter Jet Fight Club: Silent Eagle vs. Gripen!

Image
In the third installment of FJFC, I've decided to mix things up a bit.  Whereas the first two match-ups pitted similar aircraft against each other ( Typhoon vs. Rafale , JSF vs. Super Hornet ), these two aircraft occupy different ends of the fighter spectrum.  The F-15 has been around since the 70s, since then, it has earned an undefeated streak of victories.  It has also been continuously improved, culminating into the F-15SE Silent Eagle that Boeing is now pitching to prospective buyers.  The JAS-39 Gripen, on the other hand, started service in the 90s, with the intention of being Sweden's sole multirole fighter.  It has since morphed into the "Gripen NG", an updated version intended for worldwide sale. A brutish giant with a menacing reputation is pitted against a undersized upstart...  David and Goliath anyone? Remember, in Fighter Jet Fight Club; every system works as advertised and costs don't matter.  Given the...  Uh...   Con...
