New-generation Prototype Leads Gripen Renaissance
Various nations are seen as prospects for the E/F Gripen model while Saab is still selling the C/D too.
The Gripen E prototype flies over Östergötland during its 40-minute maiden flight. Among the visible changes that distinguish the new-generation fighter from the current Gripen C production model is the additional cooling air intake at the base of the fin. Other distinctive changes are the bulged wingroots to accommodate the relocated main landing gear, single-wheel nose unit, and enlarged wingtip missile-launch fairings that house elements of the directed electronic warfare system.
