	JA 37 Viggen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Saab Viggen (The Bolt) or Saab 37 is a Swedish fighter aircraft manufactured between 1970 and 1990 to replace the Saab J 35 Draken (The Kite or Dragon).
		Viggen featured a navigational computer, the Datasaab CK37 which by Swedish means was a significant technological achievement at that time.
		After 110 of the original AJ 37 and 18 SK 37 two-seat trainers were delivered, 26 of the SF 37 reconnaissance version to replace the S 35 Draken in 1975, and another 26 of the SH 37 maritime reconnaissance and strike version were built in 1974, replacing the S 32C Saab Lansen.

	Saab Viggen
		The Saab Viggen (Thunderbolt) or Saab 37 is a Swedish fighter aircraft manufactured between 1971 and 1990 to replace the Saab Lansen[?].
		Design of the Viggen began in the early 1960s with the aim of producing a robust single-engined fighter with excellent STOL performance that could be operated from improvised facilities such as roadways in the event of nuclear attacks on major installations.
		After 110 of the original AJ 37s and 18 Sk 37 two-seat trainers were delivered, 26 of the SF 37 reconnaissance version, and another 26 of the SH 37 maritime reconnaissance and strike version were built.

		System 37, "Viggen" was developed primarily to succeed the attack aircraft A 32 Lansen, when its time as a first-line combat aircraft would be over.
		Viggen was also ordered in two reconnaissance versions, the SF 37 overland reconnaissance aircraft and the SH 37 sea reconnaissance version.
		Viggen var som nämnt avsedd för jaktuppgifter redan i AJ-versionen.

	MILAVIA - Aircraft - Saab 37 Viggen (JA 37, AJ 37)
		JA37 is the fifth member of the Viggen family.
		JA37 Viggen is the only aircraft in the Viggen family equipped with a head-down-display from Smiths Industries.
		The cockpit in Viggen is a relaxed environment; automatic throttle helps the pilot to keep an optimum speed, altitude and angel at short and steep landings.

	The SAAB 37 Viggen
		The AJ 37 had a spikelike fuselage, with: fixed oval-shaped engine inlets alongside the canopy, with the inlets set off from the fuselage to avoid ingesting stagnant "boundary layer" air; a large rear-mounted delta wing; canards alongside the engine inlets; and a tall tailfin.
		The SH 37 prototype was a rebuild of the third AJ 37 prototype, and performed its first flight in its new configuration was on 10 December 1973.
		Another visible difference from the AJ 37 was that the JA 37 had built-in armament, in the form of a Swiss Oerlikon KCA 30 millimeter cannon with 150 rounds of ammunition, fitted in a belly pack and offset to the left to clear the centerline pylon.

	Saab AJ-37 Viggen by Piero De Santis (ESCI/Airfix 1/48)
		The SAAB Viggen is a heavy multi-role combat aircraft designed, produced and exclusively used by the Swedish Air Force.
		Introduced in the 1960s and the 1970s in all its variants, the Viggen was designed to respond to many challenging requirements as a multi-role (attack, reconnaissance and fighter) aircraft changing only the payloads, while also possessing STOL capabilities.
		The specialised variants of the Viggen are the AJ-37 for attack, the JA-37 interceptor, the SH-37 for sea surveillance, the SF-37 for photo-reconnaissance and the two-seat SK-37 for training.

	Saab 37 Viggen
		Viggen is a multi-role fighter, through upgrades still modern and with some almost unique features, in service with the Swedish air force in several versions, since 1971 and until after 2006.
		The fin is the same tall one as on Sk 37 to compensate for the longer fuselage.
		Of the electronic parts taken out of a JA 37, up to 80% is in use in another aircraft within a month, and for example the backup artificial horizon gyro can be used in SK 60, but not only electronics is reused.

	About the Saab Viggen
		The Saab 9-3 Viggen was developed jointly by Saab Automobile AB's Special Vehicles Operations team and the Oxfordshire, England-based TWR Group.
		Viggens were only made from 1999-2002 and were only available with a standard transmission, and limited colors (just blue in 1999, with silver and fl added in 2000, other colors like red later).
		The Viggen name (which means "thunderbolt" in Swedish) comes from one of Saabs flagship fighter jets, the Saab 37 Viggen (many people don't realize that Saab was first and still is an aircraft company).

		Viggen retirement has been a very long process, during which the number of operational aircrafts has been gradually reduced until only a handful of aircrafts remained in active service for the last couple of months.
		When manoeuvring the Viggen’s initial turn rate was excellent, but it lost energy fast due to the relatively high induced drag caused by the large delta wing, and even though this was partially compensated by the powerful engine the sustained turn rate was poor.
		Viggen was equipped with an effective thrust reverser, which could be pre-selected by the pilot before touchdown, so it would be operated automatically immediately as the nose wheel hit the ground on landing.

		The AJ 37 has a spikelike fuselage, with: fixed oval-shaped engine inlets alongside the canopy, the inlets set off from the fuselage to avoid ingesting stagnant ""boundary layer"" air; a large rear-mounted delta wing; canards alongside the engine inlets; and a tall tailfin.
		The Viggen is arguably less elegant in appearance than its predecessor, the SAAB 35 Draken, or its successor, the SAAB 39 Gripen, but it has a certain solid, businesslike, and combatative style of its own.
		The Viggen does have a ram-air turbine for emergency flight power, fitted to a door under the trailing edge of the left canard that pops out when hydraulic power is lost and (for some puzzling reason) when the landing gear is extended.

	AirToAirCombat.Com: Saab Viggen Upgrades
		Viggens in service have been given a continuous stream of mostly minor upgrades, generally in the form of improved avionics and software upgrades.
		About 100 Viggens had been scrapped by 2000, and the type is currently expected to be retired by 2006, but as mentioned the Swedes really like to get their money's worth out of their aircraft, and the Viggen's predecessors had long service lives.
		The Viggen was an excellent machine when it first flew and it may remain useful, in one role or another, for some time to come.

		The viggens delta foreplane gives its excellent stol capability-roughly a 500m take off(1640ft)...the f-4 cant come close....It has phenomenal manoeuverability while the f-4 is fair at best...and the viggen is equipted with the lastest-for that time-and most advanced/capable electronics....It also has a decent warload...perhaphs not has heavy as the f-4, but still good.
		The Viggens may have tailed an SR-71 or two as they ferried to their accelleration and from their decelleration paths, but there is no way they had the capability to pull of the intercept of an SR-71 in true operations.
		The Viggen striker is an early seventies aircraft and the Viggen fighter is, the Phantom II is from the early sixties.

		According to Viggen chassis engineer Sven Wernståhl, they elected to keep some torque steer in to "allow the driver to gauge exactly what is happening at the front wheels - it's important for the driver to feel the challenge of the power." Mission accomplished.
		The Viggen adds to the standard comfort and convenience features found on the 9-3: like a power glass sunroof and automatic climate control, a Rocky fl leather interior with textured deep blue leather inserts, front power sport seats with supportive side bolsters and driver's seat memory, and a leather shift knob and boot.
		Viggen is the only car in its class with a hatchback, which provides outstanding loading flexibility and cargo capacity.

		Norcross, GA Nowhere is the connection between the Saab 9-3 Viggen and its namesake, the Saab 37 Viggen jet fighter stronger than in their exceptional aerodynamics.
		The Saab 37 Viggen's delta wing design provides the lift and agility necessary to enable this multi-purpose jet fighter to perform its airborne duties.
		In contrast, the inverted rear wing designed for the 9-3 Viggen, with greater surface area on top than on the underside, keeps the earthbound Viggen firmly planted on the ground by creating an area of low pressure beneath the wing.

	TSN 1999 SAAB 9-3 VIGGEN - SUMMARY
		The Viggen name and badge honors the most agile and versatile Saab fighter jet ever developed, the Saab 37 Viggen, renowned for its innovative technology and design.
		In developing the Viggen jet fighter, one of its key attributes had to be the ability to land and stop in short distances to make use of Sweden's highway bases if necessary.
		Aggressive exterior styling enhancements exclusive to the Viggen reduce aerodynamic drag by 8% (to a 0.31 coefficient of drag), and reduce lift forces over the rear wheels by 60% for superb road holding and high speed stability.
