This photograph showcases Saab J 35F Draken 35480 35, a versatile jet fighter aircraft operated by the Swedish Air Force (Flygvapnet) during the late 1970s. The image, taken at the F 10 Wing based in Ängelholm, captures the Draken in its element as it prepares for takeoff. The Saab J 35 Draken, or "Dragon," was a single-engine, multi-role fighter designed and manufactured by the Swedish aerospace company Saab. First introduced in 1955, the Draken served in the Swedish Air Force for over four decades, with a total of 328 aircraft produced. The Draken was renowned for its exceptional performance, advanced avionics, and versatility, making it a formidable asset for the Swedish military. In this photograph, Draken 35480 35 is seen taxing on the runway, its powerful engine emitting a plume of smoke as it warms up. The aircraft's distinctive red and blue markings, denoting its affiliation with the F 10 Wing, can be clearly seen on the fuselage. The Draken's sleek design and aerodynamic shape are evident, as are the various sensors and antennas mounted on its wings and fuselage. The year is estimated to be circa 1976, making this an intriguing snapshot of aviation history. The Saab J 35F Draken remains an iconic symbol of Swedish military aviation, and this photograph offers a unique glimpse into its past.
