Saab JAS-37 Viggen
Lowpoly model of swedish jet fighter
The Saab 37 Viggen is a Swedish single-seat, single-engine, short-medium range multirole fighter. Development work on the type was initiated at Saab in 1952 and, following the selection of a radical delta wing configuration, the resulting aircraft performed its first flight on 8 February 1967 and entered service in 1971. It was the first canard design and arguably the most modern/advanced combat aircraft in Europe at the tim, featuring an airborne digital central computer with integrated circuits for its avionics, the world’s first of its kind, automating and taking over tasks previously requiring a copilot.
