LiveFist is reporting today that the Gripen NG demo aircraft has been sent to Inida to go through the same trials that were made with Gripen D earlier this year. It landed at the Air Force Station Jamnagar, Gujarat on Monday, and cleared its high altitude trials in Leh today.

IAF pilots already got a chance to fly the Gripen Demo in the first week of April at Linkoping, Sweden, but calling the Demo airplane to India was necessary to complete all the demands in the field evaluation test (FET) plan.
