Splinter Viggen

Wearing the distrinctive splinter camoflage associated with the Viggen, the second Viggen operated by the Historical Flight is this SK37E, SE-DXO. Out of 17 SK-37s produced, between 1998-2000 ten were converted to the ECM role to replace the J32Es. They were the last Viggens to serve, when they retired in 2007. During their short careers the SK37Es, with their U95 active jamming pod, were a highly regarded ECM platform participating in a number of NATO exercises. The thin line around the radome indentified the SK37Es.
