Product Info

To mark this yearâ's centenary commemorations of the formation of the Swedish Air Force, this model set charts the development of the force from one which purchased overseas aircraft types, to one of the most powerful air forces in the world. By the start of the Second World War, the Swedish Air Force consisted of 180 aircraft of different types, but mainly purchased from countries such as Britain, the US, Germany, and Italy.

Their first indigenous design was introduced in 1942, but in order to defend their neutrality, they continued strengthening with aircraft produced overseas. This continued into the jet age, however, Sweden was working hard to develop their own jet fighters, and when the most significant came, it was something very special: the SAAB J35 Draken supersonic interceptor.

Since then, Sweden has continued to produce impressive new aircraft, often operating them from dispersed sites using public roads as runways, with SAAB cars sharing the road with SAAB fighters.

This 1:72 scale Swedish Air Force Anniversary model kit set allows you to appreciate the brilliance of these planes from your workbench.
