Saab AJ-37 Viggen "Attack Version" The SAAB AJ-37 Viggen was an aircraft ahead of its time. Its designers used an unorthodox construction which enabled the plane to meet all requirements which had been laid on it and in some parameters even surpass them. The Swedish Air Force ordered several various versions of the Viggen jet fighter.
The very first version in service was the AJ-37 attack-fighter ("AJ" letters stand for attack-jakt in Swedish) version and now it is a subject of our model. A total of seven sprues with grey plastic parts are accompanied by a sprue with clear parts. The model contains also a set of pre-painted PE parts, decal sheet and instructions. There are three aircraft depicted in the camouflage schemes, the first one in NMF overall shows us how the early Viggens looked like. This aircraft took part in an air show in West Germany and was adorned with two badges of German AF units. The other two machines in our kit wore a standard Swedish 4-tone splinter camouflage scheme. One of them, however, had one of its air intakes replaced with a new one in colour of natural metal. The decals contain not only the needed markings, but also a complete set of stencils.
Although the Viggen model is detailed enough, we also would like to offer the modellers some resin set which will be available separately.
The Saab J-37 Viggen is a Swedish single-engine, multi-role fighter with duck-shaped lobes. Design work on the machine started in 1964, and the flight of the prototype took place on February 8, 1967. Several major versions of this successful aircraft were produced. The AJ-37 Viggen was developed with a large contribution of American technology and experience under the agreement on cooperation and exchange of military technologies concluded between the two governments. This agreement was part of the security guarantees officially given to neutral Sweden by the US government. In return, the US government demanded the protection of nuclear-warhead UGM-27 Polaris missiles deployed along the west coast of Sweden. Consequently, Viggen was developed faster and at less cost than if it had been constructed solely by Sweden. The first fighter-attack aircraft introduced into service. The letters of the AJ designation come from Attack Jakt - assault-hunting. The AJ 37 had seven knots for the suspension of weapons, two under the wings, two at the air intakes and one central under the fuselage, on which a fuel tank could also be installed. There was still space on the panels for two additional suspension points, which, however, were not used. The next version is the SF-37 Viggen, which is a reconnaissance and photographic reconnaissance machine. The flight took place in 1973. Another version is the SH-37, a sea reconnaissance aircraft. A typical fighter plane is the JA-37 Viggen model, which was flown in 1974. It has a stronger engine and - as the only Viggen - permanent shooting weapon. The only Viggen user is the Swedish military. Technical data (JA-37 version): length: 16.4 m, wingspan: 10.6 m, height: 5.9 m, maximum speed: 2230 km / h, climb speed: 203 m / s, practical ceiling: 18 800 m, maximum range: 2000 km, armament: fixed - 1 Oerlikon 30 mm cannon, suspended - up to 6000 kg of cargo.
