Saab AJ 37 Viggen Brick Model Kit

Experience the world of the Cold War, where every fighter jet takeoff could be the beginning of a conflict and the sky was a field of constant tension and rivalry. The Saab JA 37 Viggen fighter jet is a symbol of the technological courage of neutral Sweden, which relied on its own military power.

Now you can build this amazing machine, precisely reproduced from hundreds of bricks, and feel the thrill of the "Cold War" era.

World-class quality and uniqueness!

Despite its small size and population, Sweden has been developing an independent, advanced arms industry for decades. Its companies, such as Saab and Hägglunds, create modern aircraft and vehicles that successfully compete with the products of the Western and Eastern powers. This equipment is distinguished not only by its quality, but also by its unique appearance and technical solutions, emphasizing Swedish independence and engineering originality. This approach builds an image of Sweden as a country that creates military equipment with a distinct identity and high effectiveness.

A history of pride in the Swedish sky!

In the early 1960s, the Swedes began work on a successor to the Draken, a STOL aircraft capable of operating not only from airports, but also from roads in the event of armed conflict. While working on the prototype, Saab chose a "canard" configuration with delta wings and large forward control surfaces, giving the aircraft its distinctive appearance.

Saab JA 37 Viggen

In 1967, the first A37 Viggen prototype was flown, and less than a decade later, its most powerful version, known as the JA 37, was created. This single-seat interceptor fighter received a Volvo RM8B engine with afterburner, an Ericsson PS-46/A radar, and a 30 mm Oerlikon KCA cannon. The cockpit was equipped with a Swedish SAAB Mark 2 zero-zero ejection seat with a rocket engine, allowing for evacuation even at zero speed and altitude.

Its distinctive appearance with the canard configuration and delta wings made the Viggen one of the most recognisable fighter jets in Europe.

Now you can have it in your collection! All you have to do is build it!
