*I'm lazy and this rhymed. It may or may not be may

 

Don't kill me pls.

 

Cobra came taunting and gibing

While takers just want to get flying

But then he conveyed

"there's no deadline, hehe"

So the poor souls were just left there crying

 

:D :D :D

 

Btw., nice one Cobra. :)

Too true. I'd be nice for them to leave a message on this webzone. I will mail them a pizza roll.

 

Some are content to be Miggen'

seems others crave a Viggen

 

Soon we have may*

and perhaps also a day

where by your Viggens side will lay

I hope then you'll say

"this is pretty 'kay"

 

Alas! possible only when

the Leathernecks reach zen

and Who knows when that will be?

I must admit, without a lie,

but only a bitter sigh,

that not even I

well he did say may or may not be may.

 

So it "could" be in may.

 

And not sure if thats for the release or just for the announcement =(.

Just a Vigg Pic or two is all we are asking for.

Slightly off topic movie from the times of Viggen development. The concept and doctrines was however pretty much the same when Viggen was put in to service, so a film made in the late 70'ies wouldn't be much different.

In some way this movie put's a Swedish airframe in the correct context.

Yes, yet another Swedish film, but this one has english subtitles.

I think you made a slight typo.

 

The film is from the mid 60s not late 70s =P.

 

As you said its during the development of the viggen.

 

And when the AJ 37 entered service in 1970 started to replaced the A 32 lansen in the attack/strike role (the Lansen is the strike aircraft seen after 10:00)

 

And in 1980 when the JA 37 entered service it started replacing and complementing the J35 Draken

(Though the latest J35 variants continued in service untill the late 90s after having been upgraded/refurbished in the late 80s)

No typo. My point is that the movie was made during the time of design of the Viggen (mid-to late 60's), so obviously no Viggens in the movie - but if there was a film about Viggens some years later it would not be much different. Since STRIL and doctrines etc was pretty much the same - enhanced and improved of course.

ok sorry then must have misunderstood.

Wow. Looks like a lot of work.

 

I'm sure it is, it's the pre-season inspection before they refuel the aircraft and test run the engine. :-)

To get this going again. I will ask a question which has probably been brought up before. What was the maximum range you could release a Rb04? and same for the Rb75 what is max range?

If my knowledge is correct:

 

Rb 04C = ~15 km

Rb 04E = ~30 km

 

The Rb 75 was just a plain AGM-65B Maverick. Which also came in second version with a heavier warhead called Rb 75T, where the T stood for "tung" (heavy).

Can one of the devs confirm what bombs we are getting, ie 250lb, 500lb, 1000lb, 2000lb, HE/cluster/frag, retarded, low drag, high drag? Right now the Mirage is all we really have for high-speed strike, with its rather limited ordinance delivery settings
