The first Brazilian Gripen E that was delivered earlier this year, completed a stunning photo shoot in Rio de Janeiro recently.
Accompanied by a C-130 Hercules aircraft, the photographs were taken over the city's familiar land and waterscapes on 12th December.
The ongoing Gripen E test campaign will continue to be carried out at Embraer's plant in Gavião Peixoto. The production and tests of the Brazilian Gripen aircraft are on schedule and more Gripen fighters are expected to be delivered by 2021.
