Rainer Hoffmann Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Paulo, if you haven't already you should get the Squadron Signal Viggen Walkaround. Very helpful source of information. It has some 3 view drawings as well that look a bit better than those by Björn Karlström. Thanks, Harv! Thanks, Peter! I have 4 or 5 drawings, like these: If you have some more drawings, or reference photos. I will be very grateful. Note that in this drawing the top view schows a noticeable error: the spine should be the same width from canopy to the leading edge of the vertical stabilizer, not bulged as seen above. Cheers Rainer Derek B and mpk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainer Hoffmann Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Paulo, those drawings show a JA-37 Jaktviggen. In your first post you said you wanted to do a AJ-37 (or AJSK, as they were called in later years and after several modifications...). The JA-37 differs externally from the AJ (not to mention the cockpit) in several respects: - the vertical stabilizer has a saw tooth and is enlarged - four instead of three elevon actuators - fuselage is 130 mm longer than AJ to accomodate the larger RM-8B engine that has one compressor stage more than the RM-8A - the main wing spar is somewhat thicker and protrudes above the wing surface (only near the wing root). There is a traingular cover over this protrusion made from composite material - the navigation lights have been moved to the wing tip - there are two vortex generators on the canards, just in front of the elevator (instead of one on the AJ) - the center tank has four fins and the fin layout is different from all other versions - the JA has the prominent gun pack that accomodates the Oerlikon 27mm cannon That's it from the top of my head... Now, the cockpit is a completely different story. It very much depends on the timeframe. So make sure you have the correct drawings for your version. And check all your references thoroughly...

tchwrma Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 Hi, Rainer. The vaersion will be the AJ, as I said.

tchwrma Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 (edited) I found my way to do the job. I resized and redrawed the cuts of the plane. To get the correct measures, I used my digital caliper in the Airfix 1/48 Viggen kit, resizing to 1/32. This is the result: Now let's cut some plastic....

Breaker Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Paulo would the Tarangus kit be a more accurate kit to use as a basis? If you want any detail shots, let me know there's a Viggen at a museum around the corner from my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
