Saab Gripen E Cockpit - Sweden's 4.5 Gen Fighter Jet

The Saab JAS 39 Gripen E is one of the most modern and capable fighter jets out there. Join me as I jump into the virtual cockpit of a Gripen E, fly some missions, shoot some BVR (Beyond Visual Range) and IR (Infra Red) missiles and engage in a medieval gunfight. While my shooting leaves much desired, I think I did well for my first sortie in this magnificent thunderbird. Big thank you to Saab for giving access to their JAS 39 Gripen E simulator and their help throughout my visit! Saab: https://www.saab.com/ Gripen C/D and Gripen E are the main fighter jets of the Swedish Air Force (Svenska flygvapnet) and flies with the Czech, Hungarian, South African, Thai and Brazilian air force in either the Gripen C or Gripen NG variant.
