Default Gripen and Apache

Is is just me or does that Apache dwarf the Gripen??

Photoshopped, methinks. The Gripen appears to be on a takeoff run judging by the heat distortion of the air immediately aft of the turbine exhaust.

The Gripen's vertical stabilizer obscures part of the Apache's
tailboom thus placing the Apache directly above the turbulence
generated by the Gripen. No ATC or helicopter pilot would permit this
to happen.

Just my opinion
