Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
This is the very first book available in English on the complete operational record of the Saab Viggen, illustrated with a wealth of previously unpublished photos. The Viggen (Swedish for Thunderbolt), a second-generation supersonic interceptor developed during the 1960s, features an unusual double-delta design and holds particular fascination for enthusiasts and modelers. Whenever Swedish Air Force examples appear at events, they are show-stoppers.
This book includes details on each of the 300+ aircraft built and the units that operated them. Informative appendices cover modifications, program notes, etc. Author Bob Hopkins has strong contacts within the Swedish aviation community, and also with Saab. He reads and speaks Swedish, guaranteeing acess to the history of the Viggen in its 'native language'.
Previous books on the Saab Viggen are either outdated or have been in languages inaccessible to readers who are limited to English (books on the Viggen include volumes in Swedish, Polish, and Russian).
Packed with colour and grey & white photographs of the Viggen in action over the course of its 30-year history, this new book will be essential reading for general aviation enthusiasts and modelers.
