37 Viggen - The Power of Viggen!

[@emptyforrest]

grönmålade viggen är lätt det snyggaste planet någonsin. står en uppstäld i närheten av innuvatum i trollhättan. blir alltid lika glad när jag åker förbi.

[@victornalin]

Outstanding STOL capabilities! Even by today's standards! And what an aggressive looking aircraft! A true masterpiece!

[@delta2005]

8 sec. Start and 350 m landing..

[@langhammars]

That take off @ 11:58 min. =O I used to love the thunder of the Viggen during air shows in the 80's. During our holidays they constantly patrolled the air space around Gotland where we would stand at the beaches, waving to the pilots.

[@Skyisnotalimit]

I bet russians kept them selves away back then...

[@secularnevrosis]

Jag önskar att mer folk som filmar flyguppvisningar blandar in lite ut-zoomad vidvinkel så man faktisk kan se hur fort planet stiger och svänger. Jo det är ju fint att se alla detaljer på flyget..men utan en referenspunkt så får man ingen bra upplevelse av maskinens prestanda.Viggen steg ju som en raket på de uppvisningar jag har vart på..kul om det kunde komma fram lite oftare.

[@AtManTTIsTT]

Håller med till fullo!

[@ThunderboltDragon]

Thunderbolt, not flash. ;)

[@jonasthemovie]

@@ThunderboltDragon Tufted Duck, not Thunderbolt. It got Canards.

[@ThunderboltDragon]

@@jonasthemovie , Viggen is named after åskviggen (thunderbolt) according to Saab themselves. "Namnet Viggen kommer av åskviggarna som Tors hammare dundrar fram i nordisk mytologi".

[@jonasthemovie]

@@ThunderboltDragon They also claim that Draken means Dragon when everyone know that the experimental aircraft got the name from its shape as a kite. Seriously, this is the company that created Tunnan and Lansen.

I LOVE this plane. Draken too... and Grippen.

[@matslarsson100]

Vackert! Man blir tårögd...

[@akaFrits1]

Great footage, thanks for sharing!

[@briananthony4044]

It used a Boeing 737 jet engine with an afterburner added. Only the Swedes. And it had a powerful thrust reverser too for stol landing, with the canard making for stol takeoffs from roads and damaged strips.

[@stellangylestam6949]

Pilots flying it has described it as an engine with wings.

[@Emjee51617]

PROUD SWEDE 🇸🇪👍 and iam saying it !! Yep så vackert flygplan på sin tid .....den gjorde Mach 2.2 de e super schysst ju SR-71 was HELPED by it Long Time Ago ........👍and locked on by THE Viggens 🇸🇪😊thats 2716.56km/our Speed very Good

[@MrArtrock]

Det här måste vara det grymmaste Viggen-klippet jag sett, mkt bra filmat och fluget och härlig balans i slutet när dom väntar med att sänka nosen fast dom tagit mark!!!

Draken was really pretty good. But Viggen was such a superb plane! Way to far long ahead..! =D

[@azynkron]

Wars are ALWAYS won on the ground by Infantry. That's just how it works. All the other parts of Army, Navy and Airforce are there to support the Infantry in one way or the other. That's why e.g. Soviet couldn't win in Afghanistand and why the US lost in Vietnam. They simply didn't have enough men on the ground and the politicians didn't support sending more troops.

[@bluebanana6753]

naah same engine as f16 and thay lituary took the biggest engine volvo made and gave it to saab and said build a plane around this

[@paulmelker]

it's not the same engine as f16

[@bluebanana6753]

its a modified pratt and withney engine and the use one to they are difrent but the two base engines are related to eachoter f16 engine they are huge difrent betwen them but based on the same engine

[@paulmelker]

swedish minion A-6 Intruder attack aircraft not the f16

[@bluebanana6753]

f16 use a simular engine but smaller i think look it upp same manufactorer atleast and bla bla bla more shit but manufactorer smale one elspecially make really simylar engines

[@neilrobinson5115]

I remember at RIAT in 1993 the Viggen display from F7 wing at Ostersund flown by Capt Yan Froyyd,Brilliant display,Not sure if I spelt his name correctly.

[@matfflagon]

Неплохой пилотаж. Браво шведскому лётчику !

[@kkhalifah1019]

11:01 - whoaaa... this jet has a reverse gear?

[@mi2ka3el]

It does, the point of the reverse thrust was to shorten the landing . :)

[@leonsmoothy3103]

Yeah, it was the only plane able to maneuver like that on ground and actually drive in reverse and park/move around for takeoff. It had a 10 min turnaround-time (rearming, refuelling etc). Incredible.

[@Nallpeter]

Yes, it´s the "doors" about one meter forward of the exhaust. The pilot closes a valve or shall we say a hatch right at the exhaust, rerouting en jetstream forward out the doors. It makes the Viggen stop in about 4-500 meters. And gives it the ability to back up under it´s own power.

[@diamonddog257]

...so do some Harleys ......

[@terryboyer1342]

@@diamonddog257 And Harleys are usually louder too!

[@EM-st8qz]

I like this Jet. Fantastic project like Tornado Panavia.

[@neilrobinson5115]

That Volvo Flygmotor RM8B is some engine,especially with reverse thrust.

[@jpatt1000]

How long did it take to mask and paint the splinter camouflage on one of these?

[@blidderbla]

Nu gillar jag ju Viggen men hur bra var egentligen Viggen som "Fighter"? Tänker att det inte fanns någon a-kan (i början iaf) och att man var tvungen att ha motmedelskapslar på vingbalkarna. Det som imponerar mest på mig nu är centraldatorn och hur bra det funkade på tiden UTAN GPS

[@ariinkeroinen2615]

It just was a pull enough to make Sweden's skies so safe! 8-D

[@Billy-Box]

Viggen var grym, såg den på flyguppvisning som liten, någon gång i början av 80-talet.

[@Lex5576]

I believe the Viggen uses the same GE turbofan the F-16 has, built under license by Volvo. Those engines have loads of raw power, especially with the afterburner lit.

[@secularnevrosis]

The 37 or "viggen" use the Pratt and Whithney JTD8. License built and modified by Volvo. For a figther it's an enormous engine.

[@Ace-Av8er]

secularnevrosis right you are, JT8D adapted from heavy transports and commercial passenger jets. Viggen had thrust reversals built in for short field landings A remarkable fighter indeed.

[@secularnevrosis]

Naeem ahmad The J35 Has the Rolls Royce Avon 200/300 engines. I think the Lansen got one of them too. 37 got the P&W JTD8 and the 39 has the GE 404. All licence built and modifed to a greater or lesser extent. All of the afterburners are of domestic design.

[@ytbabbler]

It was also modified to handle bird strikes, a requirement since there is only one engine.

[@secularnevrosis]

ytbabbler The JTD-8 is quite resillient to birdstrikes due to its rather high bypass ratio. The bidrs often slides on the blades of the fan rotor and goes out through the bypass channel. On low bypass engines there is a greater risk of the bird getting sucked into the compressor.

Good times

[@69sungam]

detta är vad jag såg/upplevde på 80 talet...

[@BigSwede7403]

Har alltid funderat, ligger det någon sanning bakom historien att ett Viggen landade och startade från en av USAs stora hangarfartyg utan hjälp av krok eller katapult? Låter en smula otroligt tycker jag, till och med för att vara Viggen.

[@jimmygadd]

Jag tror att det va så att viggen kunde landa på ett hangarfartyg med specen den har, men den har inte landat på ett. Va med i flygvapenungdom i mina yngre dagar då hörde jag att ett kan landa med tanke på längden och att landningsstället är gjort för lite hårdare stötar. Hoppas det gav lite klarhet

[@BigSwede7403]

Hmmm. Så kanske möjligt men inte gjort. Ok, gav klarhet. Tackar.

[@leonsmoothy3103]

Det borde teknisk vara möjligt, helt klart, iom att den kunde starta på 400m o landa på 500m, men tveksamt om de testade...

[@Itu472]

+Sgt_Bepps Det där är en grymt kaxig landning. landar på ca 200m? och lyfter på ca 150m sen igen? Ett riktigt härligt ljud. Synd att vi inte har kvar alla dessa plan idag :(

[@leonsmoothy3103]

Den kunde lyfta på 400m och uppnådde 10.000m höjd på 2 minuter från stillastående. Det ser kortare ut för den kom upp i fart så djävulskt snabbt. Landade på 500m till stillastående.

[@sebastiennudo7792]

diamonddog257 calm down sparky.... those planes sont even compare to the base f-18 (early models). The viggen is a very sexy plane but thats it. Canada needs dual engine fighters. Can you imagine loosing the only engine you have over northern Canada? Sweden fits a few hundred times in Canada. We need range that the viggen or grippen wont even give us.

[@diamonddog257]

I agree .... but given the reliability of the modern engines ; ...-and the support and service of an ostensible deal Sweden would give Canada ...... -there are more factors to a Fighter aircraft deal than you might be aware of; ..... of course, MiG 31 would be a great solution ....... as Canada doesn't technically even need ' fighters..... -just interceptors ...... The final operating price per hour, is astronomical with the new generation fighters ..... btw......
