Sweden is generally a very small player on the helicopter market, however, there are a number of projects throughout history. If you know any little information, please post here. Below i put a Westland Lynx armed with eight RBS70 anti aircraft missiles, probably a mockup, iirc from 1989.

The Bofors VAK 40 S 49 (Wagon Autocannon Swedish model 1949) was a Swedish early Cold War project to develope a SPAAG (self-propelled anti-aircraft gun). It was to connect to a fire control unit with radar for calculated fire. Project scrapped in 1959 ish. Army designation was initially lvkv...

The last aircraft designed by Swedish aircraft manufacturer "ASJA" (Svenska Järnvägsverkstädernas Aeroplanavdelning) before becomming "SAAB Linköping" was a fighter project, numbered L-13, in 1939. It was similar to the ASJA L-12 conventional single-seat fighter (later renamed SAAB 19), but...

In early 1970, the Aussies sent a request to Saab that they wanted to procure the in-development fighter variant of the Saab 37 Viggen (JA 37) as a replacement for their aging Mirage III. Saab got green light for export and sent classified preliminary documentation in December 1970. Swedish...

I'm working on making the JAS-39C Gripen for a game called DCS. The only problem here though is that the gripen is plane that few know about. And therefore it's hard to get information on the HUD symbology and stuff like that. So if anyone has material, please help me out! Would be super happy...

So I’ve been researching the Junkers Ju-86, specifically the Swedish B-3 variant, but I like all of them. I’ve been having trouble finding any technical documents on the aircraft. I’ve attached some of the illustrations I’ve found. I’d also appreciate any information on the planes. If you find...

Hi, "Superhansa" Project SA-15 (S8), an interesting swedish development, from http://flygplanshistorik.se/index.htm?s=s2345/s2345_flyget.htm

I am looking for information on the development of the J-27, specifically if any portions of the aircraft were ever constructed (even at a mockup stage). I know the plane was never completed but I don't know if any parts were made - can someone help me with that? (also any other info will be...

This rather obscure Sweden weapon system, actually, quite interesting: It is the first Western shipborne anti-ship missile ever commissioned, and the only one Western SSM close to Soviet cotemporary analogues (like P-15 "Termit"). Interesting to note, that it seems to be essentially an...

Looking for information about the Swedish SAAB L23 J23 "Swedish Mustang" I came upon this picture of a purported 1939 AFF P7 scout. Does anyone else have better information about this fascinating looking aircraft? Thanks
