bombing is not combat
fighting other similarly capable aircraft is combat
>but muh 104:0
fake, negroe and gay

>>64032918 (OP)
I'm failing to see what Cambodia's move here is. Thailand is the one with more modern weapon systems and equipment. SEA needs to stop bickering nad fighting since China is the real long term enemy.

>>64032925
Too bad Cambodia doesn't have any combat aircraft kek

>>64032925
The Cambodian air force doesn't operate fighter jets at all... They don't even have a few clapped out MIG-21s.
So the only air targets for the Gripens would be helicopters and small/medium-sized turbo-prop transport planes.

>>64032947
China owns most of SEA

>>64032925
As a matter of fact, calling artillery because some poor poppyfarmer made 5 potshots and scared some fatmericans shitless is not combat either, so lets extend this thought further. The us has not been in combat since WW2 and are the least experienced military in the whole world.

A lackluster combat debut similar to the F8F.

>>64032925
>bombing isn't combat

>>64032963
Yeah not like the cocknutting debut of the F-22.

>>64032925

>combat is not combat

>>64032925
Armatard is seething again

no jamal bombing goat shepherds and shooting at su22s is not combat
your kd narrative quickly falls apart past the f4 phantom

>>64032991
shh let them cope

Bombing third worlders isn't really "combat" per se.

>>64032947
Cambodia didn't really start it and it isn't a real war, it's cover for (another) coup in Thailand. Cambodia is just trying to save face while Thailand sorts out it's internal politics.

It doesn't help that Cambodia kinda has a shitty government.

>>64032970
So basically all you need to do is put AI controlled Fokkers on balloons and the west is finished?

F-16 HEEMED.
F-15 MOGGED.

Now Gripen has a better combat record than the F-22.
Yankees on suicide watch.

>>64033022
>It doesn't help that Cambodia kinda has a shitty government.
And it really doesn't help that Cambodia started the war.

>>64032960
>some poor poppyfarmer

Afghan fighters were excess youth who didn't have anything better to do.

>>64033034
yeah nah m8 get back to us when this thing's got some actual combat kills under its belt

otherwise you'll end up with a bunch of fake exercise victories like the jeets only to completely fold once the chips are down

>>64033034
>exercise
Opinion discarded.

>>64033060
>Thai shills on /k by day three

I'm not mad about it, just impressed. Cambodia are assholes but Thailand is clearly deliberately escalating things as cover for their coup. It helps that Shinawatra has suddenly been rehabilitated (remember she is one of the reasons the war is happening) and is kinda hot.

>>64033180
>muh coup
Except that isn't necessary at all, khmer shill. The courts already suspended the PM and the generals are fully integrated into the civilian political system and are more popular than ever now because of Hun Sen's retardation. You keep hoping for coups in Thailand while Cambodia is run by a literal khmer rouge dictator.

Cambodia was the one that escalated into lobbing rockets and killing civilians and their only excuse for doing it is Thais recalling their ambassador and closing the border. It's such a comically stupid evil move on Cambodia's part, matched in hilarity only by how hard they're now getting their shit pushed in.

>>64033232
Most people of above-average intelligence see this started when Thai's killed a Cambodian near the temple.

>>64033232
>Khmer shill
There are no 'Khmer shills', they barely have internet access. The fact that you think there are marks you as a Thai shill however.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9vrrj72xy7o

I find it hilarious that you are so stupid that your excuse is 'the coup already worked so it doesn't matter' like that will make anyone who isn't a third world retard chose a side between these two idiot nations.

Seriously, you are saying that it isn't Thailand's fault because they already overthrew the PM then terrorized her into going along with your dictator? You would have gotten more sympathy if you kept your mouth shut instead of reminding everyone that both sides are absolute scum.

At this point all you are doing is making everyone hope for a long war just to see as many of you (on both sides) die because the world is better off without either of you.

>>64033034
I like the gripen but exercises and BFM don't really amount to much unless they are part of bigger excercises like red flag etc. The amount of T-38/T-45s that got positive kill scores against the F-22 is in the double digit. Same with our MB-339s and M-346 scoring positive kills against F-15s, F-2000s, Rafales etc.
Why? because most of these excercises have specific set of ROEs and limitations.
The fact they mention "rounds" makes it clear they were doing either BFM or DACT.
I still believe the Gripen is the best choice for smaller nations who want a modern frontline fighter that doesn't break the bank and that can be operated from improvised runways.

>>64033250
You mean when Cambodians opened fire and were too incompetent not to get killed when Thais returned fire.

>>64033250
>>64033481
>khmer shill continues shilling for a commie dictatorship that murders civilians
Fascinating.

>>64033481
>redditspacing cambodian PR spokesman is back

>>64033481
kek cambodians know they're in the wrong so the best they can do is try the "both sides are at fault" argument

yet whenever you bring up that cambodians killed civilians first, they immediately change the subject

>>64033718
>>64033720
>>64033727
TIDF is real? Neato.

You must of missed the part where everyone wants both of you assholes dead, no one here is picking sides we want both of you to die. WE HATE YOU BOTH.

>>64032925
If you want to be pedantic you need to have your facts straight. You absolute fucking nigger.

>>64033740
Sounds like more cope. All I see is everyone cheering Thailand to kick your teeth in, hun puppet.

>>64033740
Wow that's such a tragic sob story, I guess khmerniggers shouldn't have started the war then. Blame your khmer rouge dictator, don't blame Thais for your problems.

>>64033769
>>64033772

No one has the slightest idea what you are talking about, no one cares. The vast majority of people here are Americans who don't know or care that either of you exist.

If anything you are doing the stupid thing Russians do where they go to places online where no one cares about their issues but are so obnoxious they create enemies. Right now no one cares about your conflict but your behavior is making people support Cambodia simply because they hate you. They don't hate Thailand, they hate you personally.

Your responses don't even make sense, it's obviously a script.

>>64033797
If you really wanted Thai territory that badly, you should've brought a bigger military. And if you wanted peace, you shouldn't have killed Thai civies and supported a dictator who is all about killing civies.

Sorry bro, this is on you.

>>64033797
>more khmer crying now that the fight they started is resulting in a massive FAFO
kek embarrassing

>>64032984
You can't argue that it didn't very quickly become very peaceful when that bomb dropped.

>>64033740
Nope, Thais are alright and Cambodians are niggers. Hope your callcenter gets bombed next.

No one here is from Cambodia or even cares morons.

BTW, check the news. You just agreed to a ceasefire because Trump told you to or he would cut off all trade.

>>64033909
No one bothered to tell the Thai shills that their entire military is a puppet to US arms and that when we say jump they say 'how high master'

>>64033797
This sort of behavior is why people support the Russians despite Ukraine being objectively in the right. Shills are not welcome wherever they go.

>>64034016
But whom is concern trolling whom here?

why does the gripen cause so much seething?

Already bombed Libya in 2011. Not the first combat use.

>>64032947
You mean USA is the real long term enemy, you little turd ass faggot.

>>64034064
Probably causes downward pressure on F-16 sale prices to have similarish Western alternative.

>>64034064
If we'd have to believe the shills the Gripen would be stealth because of its size, not impaired in range because of its weight, can take off from your driveway and cheaper than running a dirtbike. The fanbase is extremely tiring.

Any passionate defense of either side is guaranteed to be shills since no one in their right minds would care about these literally who countries.

>>64034635
No one is doing any defense of anyone; as far as i can tell it's just Thai shills.

We had a very few Cambodian Americans politely explain what they knew and then they fucked off because even they don't care. Then there was a full blown 72 hour Thai shill invasion which was really confusing since no one cares but apparently /k/ pissed them off by not caring. No doubt as soon as something meaningless happens like Private Futa Fu Yu stubbing their toe they will be back.

It has to be the same idiots Russia hires, no one else is as good at getting everyone to hate them as they are.

>>64034427
>not impaired in range because of its weight
The gripen has an advantage in combat range, but it isn't because of weight, it's because late variants (Gripen-E) are capable of super cruise, while competing Lockheed-Martin products (F35) aren't.

>>64032947
China didn't start a trade war against SEA, lil bro

>>64034803
I don't know why there's so many arguments, they're for different scenarios. If you want to fight enemies with more advanced 4th generation fighters and more modern SAM systems then the F-35 is a much better pick. If you only expect to fight enemy military forces with relatively old or shorter ranges air defenses and early 4th gen fighters and older then the Gripen with lower operating costs makes more sense.

>>64032925
Bombardment is not combat
Fighting other similarly equiped ships is.

>>64035371
indirect fire on infantry is not combat
counterbattery fire on similarly equipped artillery is

>>64033909
>>64033916
Lmao no one has agreed to anything. Only Trump is saying it while Thai jets are still bombing the shit out of your shithole. Thais know they can ignore Trump and khmerniggers will lose the most from a prolonged conflict.

>>64034635
>>64034767
This is a khmer shill by the way.
>cambodian americans politely explain
Dude it's just you. Everyone knows you're the cambodian refugee in america going on every board trying to shill for a country you refuse to go back to and you're even replying to your own posts to drum up support. You get more embarrassing by the minute.
