I used a 3 view uploaded on the Secret Projects Forum as a basis.I've seen the model you're talking about, with the swept wings, but once I looked at the pictures of the real aircraft I realized the wings were simply not swept back at all. I honestly don't know why he built his model that way.
Is it me, or does the Gripen look a bit like the Convair model 200?

Vigilante intakes would probably work as well. Of course, now you have me thinking of a VTOL Vigilante with multiple lift engines...
