Yay! the Swedish next gen fighter! So i have not seen many of these and thought i would make one. Any way... some specs about the plane:The Saab JAS 39 Gripen (English: "griffin"[Nb 4][3]) is a light single-engine multirole fighter aircraft manufactured by the Swedish aerospace company Saab. It was designed to replace the Saab 35 Draken and 37 Viggen in the Swedish Air Force (Flygvapnet). The Gripen has a delta wing and canard configuration with relaxed stability design and fly-by-w wire flight controls. It is powered by the Volvo RM12, and has a top speed of Mach 2. Later aircraft are modified for NATO interoperability standards and to undertake in-flight refuelling. !!!WARNING!!! I don't recommend you take off from the ground. I AM SORRY FOR THE NOSE WIGHT If you can level it out great but i tried and tried.

    Hey dude, I added some deadweight in the back off the plane and now it takes off just fine. You can find the version on my account.

    It can't take off(the friction of the wheals are not the best) If you want to try and balance it it just gets worse.@JacobHardy64

    @Danillio05 It would be very hard to make a Swedish emblem but if you or any one that reads this can post it and I'll add it.
