[OFFTOPIC] I just want to legitimately know about something

Why on earth do some people hate the Gripen

Like fr man, why

I literally can't see any reason why. Some say it's straight up a pile of scrap metal or something like that. That reason doesn't even make sense.
Also, Gripen E blueprints are nowhere to be found. It's like finding a needle in a haystack

    1. Understand that people have personal tastes and others just have a lack of common sense when comparing between fighters and their performance stats.
    2. Just use a normal Gripen and put an E after it. It's not that different from previous Gripen models appearance-wise anyway.

    @SuperSuperTheSylph there's a few different things that are changed in the E variant from the C. Such as its wings, intake nacelles, landing gear and irst. I did manage to find one, but it's confusing. I just need its rear and underside view then I'm all set for making one :v

    Actually, RD has a Gripen and I'm currently using it as the base. I ended up discarding almost 90% of it because most of the proportions here and there are kinda inaccurate.

    i think you should just make it like C variant and scale the body up a bit to be like E variant,yk?
    they are completely identical,but the E is a bit bigger than C(15.2 m x 8.6 m x 4.5 m versus Gripen C's 14.9 m x 8.4 m x 4.5 m)

    @MonsNotTheMonster idk why specifically the E variant
    all Gripens look the same
    except if E has shape gimmicks like slightly lenghtened fuselage

    @SuperSuperTheSylph A-D's are too old tbh. Unlike F-16's that has block upgrades. I've been wanting to buold a Gripen E since 2023. And up until now, I haven't found one

    @WisconsinStatePolice that doesn't even make more sense. The Gripen, imo, is decent
