I doubt it if the Gripen is the SU-35 killer (as what the video title says). I believe they are different types of jet. Mult-role Vs Air supremacy jet, Single engine Vs Twin engine. BVR (beyond visual range) is name of the game today, even though the Su-35 dog fights well with thrust vectoring design but it is a big fighter jet. Su-35 considered one of the best 4th Gen fighter jet in the world. (maybe 4.5) Should compare the Gripen with the F16 E/F.
info link is certainly powerful. No matter now good a plane can do dog fight, planes with the info link have to sacrifice a lot b4 getting close for dog fight. But Russian also has their own info link, so really doubt if Gripen can outrun Su35 to this extend

They don't fight dog anymore.. shot down miles away by air to air missile. Su 35 equips with their own advanced AESA radar, which detects multiple targets(15) and locked on 6 at the same-time miles away. The use of radar-absorbent material reduced its RCS, harder to be found by the oppositions. Su 35 with twin AL 41 engine travels at 2.25 mach easy, where Gripen can barely reach mach 2.0 with a single engine. They are different class of fighter jets, different usage. The Sukhoi Flanker family can perform Pugachev's Cobra. Very doubtful if the Gripens can do such maneuver.
