And I hope Canada does too, I’ve never liked the platform.

Gimme the Rafale or Eurofighter, but I’d settle for the Gripen.

Honestly all 3 are great platforms, and better at different things.

  • Rafale M is an excellent 4.5gen CATOBAR-capable airframe
  • EF2000 is basically the European Eagle, and the Meteor is one of the best Fox-3s in the world (and meaningfully better than the AMRAAM)
  • JAS 39 basically is one of the best 4.5gen frontline austere-deployment fighters ever made, and WAY more robust than the Viper.

At the same time, despite how wildly outdated it is now, I fucking LOVE how the Draken looks. Definitely in the running for my all-time favorite in terms of looks.
