Important Information
Use //paste -e when spawning the Schem file into your Minecraft world to make sure item frames are placed.

The Schem file provided acts as a library for each variant of the JAS-39, so I highly recommend spawning it into a separate world first, from there you can choose which variant you want and what arrangement you want it in. The file consists of 24 aircraft in groups of 4, in each group of four there will be different arrangements for the variant, e.g. Unarmed/Gear In, Armed/Gear In, Unarmed/Gear Out, and Armed/Gear Out.

Using Worldedit the chosen aircraft can be saved and then transported to where you need it. Make sure when you do this you use //copy -e in order to save the item frames present, and use //paste -e to place it in.

I do not permit the reposting of my builds, and make sure you give credit where credit is due.

Carpet Troubles
Once you have spawned the file into your Minecraft world you will notice that some of the carpet on the aircrafts' wings are missing, this happens at random when a file is placed. To fix this all you need to do is manually replace the carpet, use the pictures below to guide you.
