ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

The armament of the Hungarian Gripens has been expanded with the IRIS-T missile

I was able to visit Kecskemét airbase in early october. My reason was, that the Hungarian Gripen jets were seen by spotters with the IRIS-T. Me and a friend asked for a close up of the missile on one of the jets, and a possible loading as well. We got the go from the MOD, and luckily, a GBU-12 was included in the process as well:
