COBI® Saab AJ 37 Viggen

Build the Saab JA 37 Viggen fighter jet and add a construction model of the Scandinavian bird of prey in 1:48 scale to your collection.

Immerse yourself in the world of the Cold War, where every takeoff of a fighter jet could be the start of a conflict and the sky was a field of constant tension and rivalry.

The Saab JA 37 Viggen is a symbol of technological courage of neutral Sweden, which relied on its own military strength.

Now you can precisely rebuild this amazing machine from building blocks and feel the thrill of the "Cold War" era.

Sweden has been developing an independent, state-of-the-art arms industry for decades.

Companies like Saab create modern aircraft that successfully compete with the products of the great powers.

This equipment is characterized by quality, a unique appearance, and technical solutions that underscore Swedish independence and engineering originality.

In the early 1960s, the Swedes began working on a successor to the Draken – a STOL aircraft that was to operate not only from airports but also from roads in the event of war.

During the development of the prototype, Saab opted for a canard delta design with large forward control surfaces, giving the aircraft its distinctive look.

In 1967, the first flight of the A37 prototype took place, and less than a decade later, its most powerful version emerged, known as the JA 37.

This single-seat interceptor was equipped with a Volvo RM8B afterburning engine, an Ericsson PS-46/A radar, and a 30mm Oerlikon KCA cannon.

A Swedish SAAB Mark 2 zero-zero ejection seat with rocket propulsion was installed in the cockpit, enabling rescue even at zero altitude and zero speed.

The distinctive canard delta layout made the Viggen one of the most striking fighter jets in Europe.

Now you can add it to your collection!

You just have to build it.

The key elements of the Saab JA 37 Viggen set:

- Uniqueness in the collection – The Saab JA 37 Viggen model is a real treat for collectors, aviation, and military fans.

Its unusual silhouette stands out distinctly from classic aircraft constructions of the Cold War era.

- 881 building blocks – The bricks were made with love for detail and high precision.

Each element helps to capture the characteristic shapes, proportions, and unique construction details of the aircraft – from the prominent wings to the reproduction of the armament and cockpit equipment.

- Pilot figure – The set includes a simplified pilot figure with helmet and oxygen mask including hose, which further underlines the realism of the entire model.

- Scale 1:48 – A classic collector's scale that fits perfectly with other models of the ARMED-FORCES series.

This scale offers a balanced ratio between detail level and compact size, making the model a focal point both on the shelf and in larger dioramas.

- High-quality prints – Instead of stickers, durable prints with the markings of the Swedish Air Force were used.

They are detailed, elegant, and abrasion-resistant.

- Realistic armament and details – The model includes reproduced long-range air-to-ground RB 04 missiles, making it easier to present in various combat configurations.

- Movable elements – The model features movable ailerons, wheels, and an opening cockpit.

These elements increase interactivity, allow the depiction of flight maneuvers, and give the model more dynamism and "liveliness".
