First flight with royal thai airforce Gripen

The first Gripen fighter for Thailand completed its maiden flight in Linköping, Sweden, on September 17. In 2008, Thailand ordered a complete aircraft and command and control system from the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) in a Government to Government deal. The order includes a first batch of six Gripen C/D with associated equipment and service, one Saab 340 aircraft equipped with Erieye radar (AEW), a Saab 340 for transport and training plus an integrated command and control system with data links. The Royal Thai Air Force will start their training on Gripen in Sweden next year and the fighters will be delivered to Thailand in 2011. Available video includes views of the Gripen first flight for the Royal Thai Air Force.

I'm sitting in Thailand right now watching Gripen fly with Thai colours. I hope it does you proud.

@ounpug I couldn't agree more. If Royal Thai Air Force is just 1/10 of what the Israeli Air Force (IAF) is capable of, do you think Cambodia would dare to abuse Thailand whenever it wants to?

@KATAERO It is our inexperienced and corruption government that caused trouble to our military.

มาทุกอันเลย ไอ้ คห. ข้างล่างเนี่ย มาพูดแต่เรื่องเขมร กูรำคาญมันจริงๆ

I heard the poor Cambodian Military is kicking the ass of Thai Military all the way from Preah Vihear Temple to Bangkok. Is that true? If it is, I don't think these new jets will change anything. What's lacking in Thai Military isn't equipment but courage and intelligence, which can't be bought at any price. Why waste money?
