I understand your sentiment, but they usually does not do the manouvering in view though, so you just get the noise part. Can get tiring when they fly alot.
>tfw sitting at the bonfire on a pleasant Michigan evening at my parents cabin as a kid and a pair of f16s from camp grayling scream overhead at minimum safe ceiling
I bet Op lives near Langley and saw a couple flying around today. Their engines sounds way cooler than the raptors which is wild because the raptors already sound like crazy alien shit
You'd think, but I lived near the flight line on Eglin AFB for a bit and F-35s are fucking louder than F-15s, F-22s, and everything else. Apparently the amount of engines has zero effect on loudness.
yeah I heard f35 they are very loud here
but the gripen is still just one small engine derive from F/A-18 engine not putting out a lot of thrust
but maybe the swedes fucked it up somehow

F-35s sound like the world ending compared to F-16s or A-10s. I don't get many F-18s (and no Gripens that I'm aware of) in Tucson but I imagine OP just doesn't have a frame of reference for how loud Jet Fighters can really get.
*Does flight practice some kilometers away from my summer place in northern sweden drowning me in noise while draining tax money in your path*
You act like that noise is somehow a bad thing
I would kill for front yard jet training seats.

If you weren't a cuck and lived on the water you could see them

I live by an F-22/F-35 base, plus a refueling squadron that flies low asf, equal parts awesome and annoying

Fund a billion more

regarding this planes engines
aren't they basically one half of a f/a18? can't be that loud
>one engine doing the work of two engines
IDK Anon, that doesn't sound like a recipe for a quieter vehicle

Defeat F-15's.
Wow good job Saab.

"Show me the scenario conditions."
"Where are the scenario conditions?"
"Was it no BFR only with no awareness until a certain area? WHAT WERE THE RULES ANON?"
That plane will always be the hipsters choice of F-16s, with shorter range and less useful payload.
maybe so but she's cuter than f16 stay mad
Shoots down Su-30s with Meteor missiles.
Brazil to double their Gripen order.

is cute
I do like Gripens, but I have a seething hatred for Gripenfags.
It's good plen
