your
mission
Gripen is the first multi-role/swing-role
latest generation fighter to enter service.
You’ve already heard about its combat
effectiveness, mission flexibility,
survivability and flight safety.
We could line up convincing facts for
hours, but instead, let’s get a taste of the
real thing. Why not take a pilot’s-eye
view of Gripen?
We’re offering you the chance to
experience what it’s like to be a Gripen
pilot on a mission. So pull on your
Anti-G Suit and get ready for some
action!
here’s the scenario:
Your group will patrol Sector Zebra,
including a long, sparsely populated
coastline, at a patrol altitude of 35,000 ft
and an average speed of Mach 0.9.
We have received intelligence reports
of unidentified naval and airborne
movements just outside our territorial
limits. Your Gripen will carry Air-to-
Ground and Air-to-Air missiles, and
the mission plan includes Air-to-Air
refuelling. All your flight data will be
downloaded digitally and take-off is in
five minutes… Any questions?
your
equipmenT
The Gripen fighter is equipped with the latest world-leading technology, and so are you.
Here’s some of the gear you’ll need for your first-ever mission in the Gripen.
flight suit
The Flight Suit is your basic outfit. When
in flight, it’s always complemented by the
Flight Jacket, the Anti-G Suit and gloves.
flight Jacket and anti-g suit
The Flight Jacket and Anti-G Suit are tailor-
made for each individual pilot, and are vital
to your protection in the event of ejection.
An important feature of your Flight Jacket
is the chest bladder, which automatically
balances pressure. The Flight Jacket also
functions as a life vest and features an
emergency transmitter that is automatically
activated at 12G (or manually if needed).
The signals will be picked up by teams in
the surrounding area so the pilot can be
rescued.
survival pack
Attached to the Flight Jacket is a Survival
Pack, placed in your ejection seat. The
Survival Pack contains equipment such
as an inflatable lifeboat and clothing.
The Anti-G Suit holds a medkit. The exact
items included are subject to your nation’s
requirements.
helmet Mounted display (hMd)
The integrated Helmet Mounted Display
provides real-time data superimposed
right in front of your eyes. No matter
where you turn your head, you’ve got
full control and information on flight
parameters, sensor data, target cueing and
weapon status. The HMD also features an
integrated chemical/biological respirator
and Night Vision camera options.
Time To
launch
The cockpiT
is yours
The firsT Thing
you’ll notice upon
entering the cockpit is the total absence
of analogue back-up instruments.
Gripen’s cockpit is the first of its kind that
is totally digital, and the result is more
space for larger and clearer displays.
The basic idea behind Gripen’s Human
Machine Interface is to show the pilot
only what’s needed in each situation.
This makes it much easier for you as
a pilot to handle flight information,
combat situations, incoming data link
information and other communication.
The Gripen is a true multi-role/swing-role
fighter aircraft. It can instantly change
roles at the push of a button. The main
computer optimizes systems, controls
and displays for the new situation or
threat. This means that you can switch
between, say, reconnaissance and Air-
to-Air roles in just a fraction of a second.
In every respect, the goal is to give
you complete confidence and situation
awareness. And – thanks to the
advanced avionic systems – minimal
“sensor to shooter time”.
