How Sweden made the best fighter jet - Saab 35 Draken

How do you protect a vast nation that spans nearly half of Western Europe, especially when most of your population is within range of the Cold War's formidable adversary, the Soviet Union? The answer lies in creating the ultimate defender. This is the tale of how the Swedes ingeniously developed a formidable adversary for any jet aircraft worldwide. They invented the Cobra Maneuver and laid the foundation for one of Europe’s most formidable air forces, all by daring to think outside the box.

    Okay. I’ll kix things off!! Thanks so much for this video !!! fantastic!! As a kid of the cold war (born ‘66) those Russian Bears were always on patrol just over the horizon - well maybe just in my imagination. I don’t know why they had this book, but my grammar school library had a coffee table type book that Illustrated SAAB’s Aerospace efforts and the Draken that adorned the cover was like nothing I had ever seen!! I was hooked. That books check out card had just one name on it, 20x over. coincidently the same name in the notes to my mother about some child who never seemed to pay attention nor work up to his potential . poor dumb bastard! thanks for jogging a memory long forgotten - looking forward to more!! well done
