I’m not saying this is what you saw but 3 Swedish Gripens departed Fairford at 13.09.

839
231
268

They are the only flight of 3 fighters departing around that time.
Make of it what you want.
Hope it helps.

Hi,
the formation was different to UK or US, the sound was different and the colour scheme looked lighter as well.
So i guess it was these.
Many thanks for the reply.
Something different in the L/C

Regards Neal
