One remark: for an unknown reason, the word viggen is sometimes translated by Google as the ‘tufted duck’.
-
Thats because a tufted duck is called “vigg” in Swedish, “åskvigg” or just “vigg” is also a thunderbolt. So viggen could mean “the tufted duck” or “the thunderbolt”. Vig is old nordic and means combat or combat ready. So I guess one can choose the meaning to their liking

Seen pics of the Viggen. Seem performance charts.
All makes complete sense…

Little update: the flight model is currently being tested by a former JA37 pilot at the JA37Di simulatior (museum F21-squadron in Lulea). The conclusion so far:
“Short summary,” with a little trickery in .dat file should this JA 37D Viggen be a real winner. Very stylish and high credibility".
(Statement from a pilot and flight engineer)." -

(Statement from a pilot and flight engineer)."Hello, could you please detail (in PM or mail if you prefer) the “little trickery in .dat file” that is suggested ?

Hi Topolo, this were the initial reactions. More testing is needed to nail it down. As soon as I have new figures, I’ll let you know

Maybe this is the place and moment to mention the guys who were involved in this BMS aircraft:
Swede for providing the basic 3D model
611Eagle and Pumpyhead for 3D model improvements
Qawa for making the 3D cockpit
Ram22 for database work
Topolo for the Flight Model, based on real life data
Falcas and other devs for tweaks and incorporating this beauty in 4.33Thank you all!
