Japanese fighter jet art FTW.
That’s really impressive actually. How much time does it take to paint
Apparently it’s in the ballpark of 6 weeks and $100,000. I hope someday I’m in a position to be concerned about the cost and time to have my plane painted.

Sorry boss, I gotta leave 2 hours early to pick up my F-15 from the paint shop.
my beloved 💕
Wow, that’s a beauty!
What’s that fighter at the bottom right? The paint job may not be as impressive as the others, but I like the overall design.
You don’t know the Gripen? Shame, shame, shame!
I’m not nearly as familiar with military hardware as many of the regulars here.
Saab Gripen. I believe that’s one of the Swedish camo schemes but can’t be sure and don’t have time for more research RN.
You can juuust make out the Swedish rondell: a circle with 3 crowns.
I think its a gripen. I don’t know much of anything about jets but the only modern fighter I know with those foward wing things is the gripen.
Those forward wing things are called canards. 3 modern fighters have them.
- Saab Gripen: grey, delta wings, single engine, rectangular side intakes.
- Dassault Rafale: grey, delta wings, twin engine, round side intakes and fixed fuel probe. Only fighter known to defeat the F-22 in simulated combat.
- Eurofighter Typhoon: grey, delta wings, twin engine, rectangular lower intakes.
Thank you
some variants of the su30 and su33 have them too
I’d say, the one and only Gripen från Norden.

Gripen your fuel depots, gripen your open air munition storage…
