History.

The Saab AJ37 Viggen was a Swedish multirole fighter aircraft introduced in the 1970s, designed to defend Sweden’s neutrality during the Cold War. The Viggen (“Thunderbolt”) was highly advanced for its time, featuring a canard-delta wing layout, which gave it excellent manoeuvrability and short take-off and landing capability — vital for operating from Sweden’s dispersed road bases. Powered by a Volvo RM8 turbojet (a licence-built Pratt & Whitney JT8D), it could reach Mach 2 and carry a wide array of weapons, from air-to-air missiles to anti-ship and precision strike munitions. Retired in 2005, the Viggen remains a celebrated symbol of Swedish innovation and independence.
