    Sure you uploaded the changed version on thingi? Re-downloaded now and seems unchanged.
    According to Wikipedia the diameter of the IRIS-T body is 127mm. At 1:9 scale that makes 14.1.mm for the model, which is what I made it.

    Thingi is having problems. Try re-loading, you may have a cached version.

    I've posted up a link showing how different people pronounce it and even the Swedes pronounce it in different ways. I've watched for months how you and others fight with one another and throughout it all, it's been YOU, who have been the worst perpetrator. It's just not worth reading your garbage any further. I guess it's time for another to go on the IGNORE list. GOOD BYE!
    If someone helping others do things right bothers you so much, then yes, ignore is exactly what you should do. It is a bit cute observing that you somehow seem to think this is something that I should fear / worry about / dislike though.

    Here are some Gripen drop tanks!

    1/9 scale Gripen drop tanks with lug attachment. Adjust your printer settings for desired infill etc.

    What's wrong with those who DO speak the language in question trying to teach those who don't?

    1:9 scale IRIS-T missile with lug to fit Freewing Gripen wingtip rail.The nose section has some breakaway parts that look like fins to support it upright while printing. These are not part of the missile - remove after printing.Will need supports.Underwing pylons at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4713773

    Kind of funny how the nose wheel on this plane looks almost identical to a Freewing nose wheel. 😲

    No, it's not! :)
    And I couldn't care less about what you think is or isn't crap, tbh.

    You can keep those comments to yourself and spare the readers of actual useless 'crap'.

    Best regards,
    Jandro.

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

    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.

    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.
