J-35ÖE Draken Model – A Brief History

The Saab J-35 Draken was a groundbreaking Swedish delta-wing fighter, used mainly by Sweden and in the J-35ÖE variant by Austria. Entering service in the mid-1950s, it became the backbone of Swedish air defense during the Cold War, impressing with its performance, innovative design, and distinctive silhouette. The Austrian ÖE variant was distinguished by locally tailored avionics and equipment modifications. The J-35 Draken was active in European air patrols until the 1990s.
