The only fighter aircraft in history to get a radar lock on the SR-71 Blackbird. The american crew on "the sled" were sporty enough to actually send the swedish pilot a reward afterwards.
Source? The Swedish Airforce... The US would frequently fly over the Baltic Sea with its SR-71 Blackbird at very high altitudes and up to three times the speed of sound. Since Sweden had to intercept foreign aircraft regularly they had aircraft combat ready and could breakaway to pursuit. "It was routine for me, but I was at a very high altitude. The digital control data that was presented to me confirmed it was either one of two possible aircrafts - a Soviet MiG-25 or a SR-71. I looked at what was happening on the radar to see if there was any attempt at jamming, and then pursued the target." He then had a look to see if he could get a visual on the Blackbird.That was when I saw a graphite-grey aircraft pass me a few thousand meters above. To this day he still does not want to reveal the exact altitude at which he was at, but it was much higher than he had been earlier. The first thing P-O Eldh noticed was that the sky had suddenly become dark. From being blue just a few minutes earlier, it was now black. On my way down again, I could also clearly see the curvature of the earth. General Lennart Petterson is the chief of the Tactical Flight Command but also he was a fighter pilot back in the days. He clearly remembers how fast everything went which missions against the SR-71 involved and describes these events as the highlights of his career. "Each time was just as exciting and interesting. Intercepting the aircraft was tremendously difficult because of the high speeds and altitudes but it was one of the most extreme missions you could be a part of. When we succeeded, which we did most of the time, and afterwards could conclude that we actually would be able to shoot the SR-71 down if it were a live mission, it was quite pleasing since it was at the same time an evaluation of our professionalism."
As Le Ozzk wrote as a comment. :) I could add that even while "The Sled" tried to jam the Swedish Viggen, the Viggen received target data from radars on the ground and was thus able to keep a missile lock on the SR-71.
@@CorvusCorax. no cheap land based artillery can take out soviet amphibious invasion fleets from the western shores of thd baltic sea... Your point is ignorant.
old_marine ; Yup, it's the most brutal jet-engine sound I've ever heard. In 98 I got off a passenger jet in an airport in southern Sweden, at the tarmac. About 150m away 2 Viggens took off at the same time and the ground shook. It's got a peculiar raw, thunderlike sound, it's beautiful.
90000 hp with the afterburner on. It was designed for STOL from bases on the normal road network. Hence, it needed to be able to both take off and land on way shorter strips than normal fighters.
@@azynkron That's the attack and recon version. The fighter had more. I did my militery time on the F17 airfeald in 1989 and the kaptain that instrukted us said that the fighter hade about 120000 hp then he smiled and said "that's the official numbers". Take from that what you will. The only thing that differ this plane from a rocket is it wasnt going to space to often.
Great jet that has a look unlike any other Mach 2+ jet. Saab really knew how to build jets that were ahead of their time. The J-35 Draken is also a cool Saab jet thas about the size of a F-16. Hasegawa has an excellent J-35 1/72nd scale model with great color schemes. All red, Yellow or Black Drakens look cool painted in either colors. Great panel line detail and perfectly fitting parts. It's a $20 model and has aftermarket parts including a mask. The Saab J-37 comes from Special Hobby is a great model. It's twice the size of the Draken and those front canards just make it look like no other jet. I built the recon version of the Saab J-37 which is the SA-37. Both are 1/72nd scale and both kits have great engraved panel lines .
Nothing like seeing the Pratt and Whitney JT-8 on a fighter jet! That’s one hell of an engine! After all, that’s what the 727, 737-200, and MD-88s have 😃
Depends if you want to display it or fly it, there are only 2 Viggens left that can possibly fly, this is one plus 1 SK37 Viggen that SwAFHF is fixing up.
At that time building a plane that only has the STOL capability, not that hard. Build a plane that reach and goes beyond mach 2, not that hard. Combine it and you have the Viggen, way harder to do but the swedish engineers managed to! Impressive!
Um dos avioes mais perfeitos que ja vi. Acredito eu, que o BRASIL fechou com a Saab, devido a ele, pela manobrabilidade, pela estabilidade, facilidade de se voar; o Grippen, se parece muito com ele, e vem com o knowhow da Suecia !!! Me parece, que o projeto do Viggen, e datado de 1958, tendo voado apenas em 1966 0u 67. Quem souber me oriente, mas ate os americanos babaram nesse aviao !!!
Built around it's enourmous modified Volvo rm engine with superior capacity. A three stages afterburner.... extremly fast, even faster and the finally stage Major Tom....
Danke für diese wirklich gelungenen Aufnahmen! :) Darf ich fragen, womit 'ihr' (oder Du) das gefilmt habt? Also welche Kamera und welches Objektiv... :) UND: WIE habt ihr es geschafft, dass ihr keinen Maschendrahtzaun im Bild habt? 3m hoch gewachsen oder irgendein anderer 'Trick'? :D Runtergedrückt habt/ hast ihr/ Du ihn (den Zaun) ja nicht oder? LG aus dem net sooo schönen Wien ;)
Hallo! Danke erstmal für Dein Lob:) Aufgenommen habe ich diesen Donnerkeil:) mit einer Panasonic HC-V707EG-K. Zu deiner Frage wegen dem Zaun .Wann immer der Rekrut vor uns weggesehen hat , haben wir den Zaun immer ein paar cm runter geschoben, ohne das es ihm aufgefallen ist :) . Schlussendlich war der Zaun dann nur mehr 50 cm hoch :) Lg
Hallo und GERNE!!! Ich denke, wenn sich jemand offensichtlich Mühe gegeben hat und das dann auch hier reinstellt, damit wir es auch betrachten können, dann darf man sich auch mal bedanken für etwas und nicht immer alles als selbstverständlich betrachten :) AAAACH! Mit einer V707 sieht das schon SO gut aus!?! Ich habe nämlich die 909 bzw 929 im Auge gehabt und dachte mir, dass die vielleicht nicht ausreichend wären. Die höheren Modelle sind ja sogar 3-Chip Dinger ^^ Ja, das sieht man auf dem Video eh so ähnlich - ist ja quasi kein Zaun mehr an der Stelle vorhanden :D :D :D LG
The viggen had a radar lock on the blackbird,they didnt want to shoot but just to scare the blackbird,and the viggen Did so 2 migs crashed into the baltic sea:)
JT8D Basic Engine But almost totally rebuilt by Volvo Flygmotor Sweden like: -1ea gearbox to support single Engine systems onboard. -Afterburner(off course)
You’re right! My dad worked on 727s, 737-200s, and MD-80s for a long time. I played the sound of the engine for him, and I asked him which one he thought it was. He immediately said 727! Lol. I think the JT8 has the best sound. Awesome seeing it on a fighter jet!
The problem with swedes is that they are not good at marketing and unfortunately not independent enough to sell these planes to others. They could sell tons of these to middle east. Sadly, another wasted product like Saab and Volvo.
Dieser Schrotthaufen erinnert, so irgendwie, an eine MIG 21 :) Aber einzig konzipiert für Tiefflug und Schiffsbekämpfung. Ansonsten eine lahme TONTAUBE.
Sweden is so kewl. They even have the sign of the magi on their air planes. Why was the ground support guy packing a side arm? Was he going to a Trump rally after he got off duty?
All the Saabs look so cool and funky on the ground/taxiing, and THEN absolutely otherworldly in the sky. Beauty.
My father worked in aerospace most of his life and I remember him seeing the Viggen , at Farnborough , and being SO impressed !!! Wales UK
I love the deep booming voice it has :-)
Ich liebe dieses Teil. Mit Schmunzeln denke ich ans Einparken mit dem Ding. So für den täglichen Flug in die Arbeit. Für mich eine der besten Maschinen, die je gebaut wurden.
So glad to fly this beauty on DCS!
have buyd it last week. Its absolutley great :)
I've been saving up for it! Would love to do road ops

You think your shit's invincible? But it's not. You're only europeans on a new continent.
Yes and if this radar lock was indeed on a SR-71 Blackbird, Radar Lock is the only thing that you would have gotten!
I'll always regard the Viggen as something extra special, being the first scale model I ever constructed as a kid.
X Gen same here ❤️
That turn circle on take off ....amazeballs!!!!
i really command this pilot for showing her off in this manner, i love this bird
That thing is a beast!
Love how the Swedes purpose build to suit their conditions perfectly...
because our military is a defence force and nothing else :)
GR8 point, same with the S tank.

Never got enough for with "The Hammer" - Saab Viggen! ))=D
300 meter takeoff, impressive👍🏻

Und genau wegen solchen Maschinen fahre ich jedesmal zur Airpower! Ein irres Gerät vorallem der Klang ist auch sehr speziell :)
Excellent camera work. tack så mycket

Swedish classic, powerful jet
Das Gerät ist der Hammer.Ich stimme zu.Tolle Show,gut gefilmt.
Very cool plane. Thanks for sharing.
Jay Philip Williams No prob. ;)
this is a 60:s aircraft and its so mutch before the time!
they say that its almost could land on aircraftcarrieer
with out a hook!
/SUI
Does carrier takeoffs and no-flare carrier landings , very impressive ! Would be good to see ?

The Viggen was one of the best Fighter-Bomber of her time. Cheap and effectiv in multi roles. And his time far ahead in many categories. Bye Hans..
Great jet and video!
Nothing like seeing the Pratt and Whitney JT-8 on a fighter jet! That’s one hell of an engine! After all, that’s what the 727, 737-200, and MD-88s have 😃
Simply the best! and now we have 39 Gripen C , CD and the New E is the world's best except F 22 Raptor. 👍👍🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
I miss seeing the Viggen. next to the Warthog this was my favorite foreign fighter.
90 000 hp raw power on full trottle.
The most poweful engine in a fighter jet ever.
A big rocket with a steering wheel.
(Old military saying)
Turns like a piece of shit easy target practice for Migs.
Omer lmao, you out here actually thinking that’s true
Omer What a bunch of bullshit.
@@carpetclimber4027 Depends on who is flying what. Air combat is rarely decided by the machinery.
FR Not a fighter engine.
Swedish steel by SAAB a Soviet killer and a powerful and beautiful fighter plane. 🇸🇪 stolt svensk! Swedish engineering.
Ich muss da genau neben dir gestanden sein ich höre mich reden schönes Video 👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Jakob fabian Böckle Kann sein jaa :) Danke! ;)
Awesome
I was there ... Great Show
Am Schluss.....Deis Gerät is a Wahnsinn.....😅
I can only hope that someday, one of the few remaining Viggens will end up on the civilian market. I'll pay any price.
Everett Tech ; I would too! Sadly I don't see it ever happening...
Depends what you will do for it, if you have the right contacts, you could probably buy one for 2000$ in Sweden
Depends if you want to display it or fly it, there are only 2 Viggens left that can possibly fly, this is one plus 1 SK37 Viggen that SwAFHF is fixing up.
SO EIN GEILER FLIEGER - SUPER AUFGENOMMEN.
Danke😉
I wish this magnificent fighter would arrive on Radom Air Show one day.
Parabéns aos suecos pelo belíssimo jato, com certeza uma tecnologia invejável. BRAZIL
Great video, thanks.
The peak of Saab fighters!!!
AWESOME!!!
7:03 on the left side of the fuselage ... is that a ram air turbine?
It might be an emergency electricity generator if the turbine fails and basic instruments still need power.
In case of engine stalling the turbine provides electrical and hydaulic power.
Yes. It deploys with the landing gear.
This was the "days of thunder"
Todays leaders of our country could not even deside when to take a shit but asking EU first. It's a shame.
This jet proved we haven't improved for 50 years, just stuck an iPad in the cockpit and called it new.
@skogenburzum Not only F16 but also about the Abrams Tank, the T72 and so on
At that time building a plane that only has the STOL capability, not that hard. Build a plane that reach and goes beyond mach 2, not that hard. Combine it and you have the Viggen, way harder to do but the swedish engineers managed to! Impressive!

Esse avião é muito show...
Brilliant!!!!!!
Warum bist du nicht bei den Schweden geblieben?
Built around it's enourmous modified Volvo rm engine with superior capacity. A three stages afterburner.... extremly fast, even faster and the finally stage Major Tom....
@M G G First flight in 1967, what did you expect..... gen 5 capabilitys?
@M G G Mach 2.1 is well good enough. But in the 1970s it could out climb pretty much anything.
very elegant
Fine display of a fine aircraft! Is it standard procedure to deploy the RAT during taxi?
It's connected to the landing gear. When it's extended the RAT is also extended. No option to control it seperately AFAIK.
There are many Pictures och Movies with the RAT in a folded in pos on internet upon landing. Sure about this?
@@voderick If I remember correctly it deploys automatically when the pilot selects the short runway and full reverse thrust landing mode.
C est en Autriche mais où ca

Nice Pictures and support upon sudden engine problems.
Give the aircraft hyd.power enough to land...
It automatically deploys with the landing gear.
I wonder why it wasn't exported ...
