Official Freewing JAS 39 Gripen 80mm EDF Jet

Not sure, he doesn't seem to be serious...

lol very true, but he pronounces Gripen perfectly.

[Radar-Guy]

Kinda poor example since this is a Swede trying to speak English at the time.

Far better Swedish pronunciation to be heard in this video: https://youtu.be/FWAyPWAUfMU

There aren't any fins on the nose part. If you read the comments you would know what they are.

Great, my bad :D

[kallend]

Great job!

Would propose the following changes:

- Lose the aft fins on the nose part. They should not be there.
- The body diameter should probably be increased a tiny tad. The diameter should be almost exactly the same as each of the large vanes.

1:9 scale IRIS-T missile to fit Gripen wingtip rails.

Just a quick question: Is it pronounced: "grippin" or "gripe'n"?

The latter. At least that will be far closer.

G + reap (what you sow) + en (as in the last two letters of an egg-laying hen)

In general pronounced far slower than most Americans by instinct would.

It was hard to find more than lengt and diameter. I gess you have to stipelate the rest...

Here is my first shot. the body dimensions are good. The fins are guesstimated from photos.

I haven't split it up into easily printable parts yet. Let me know if you think it OK and i'll work on the printing.

Here's what they look like

Agree, 3DP pylons would be extra cool.
If anyone does share some, I'll be grateful! :D

I can put together a 3D 1:9 scale IRIS-T for the wingtip rails pretty quickly if I can find a 3-view or some dimensions of the fins. I couldn't find anything useful from a quick Google search. I already have the body done.

Do you have anything?

At the very least would love to have an IRIS-T for my wing tips.

STL files for the underwing rails would be good too.

Absolutely.

Would love to sit down and model a bit more myself, just so darn hard to find time these days.

Instead, having something like 4-5 models needing work, building up a nice little backlog.

And obviously, a couple of Meteors under the wings would be nice too. After all, it is quite likely the most dangerous air to air missile in existence right now.

Do any have 3D files for weapon to this FW Jas39 in 1:9?
I can see its using many of the same weapons as others figher jet is using.

I have a 1:9 Sidewinder up on Thingiverse with lugs to fit the wingtip rails. Just search for my name or for Gripen.

[HockeyMac!]

This is what I'll be using. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2765476
