Australian AJS-37 Viggen, Royal Australian Navy livery from the late 1970s. Based on the Gull Grey/White scheme of the RAN A4G Skyhawks operating from HMAS Melbourne in the 1970s. Back in the days when Australia had an aircraft carrier. Completely made up, but in the spirit of the original.
In early 1970, Australia sent a request to Saab that they wanted to procure the in-development fighter variant of the Saab 37 Viggen (JA 37) as a replacement for their aging Mirage III. Saab got green light for export and sent classified preliminary documentation in December 1970. Swedish standards were seen as unfavourable, despite noting good track record. Requirement specs came at the end of 1971, aiming for a 1976 delivery.
In March 1972 specs were done for the planned Saab 37AU, which was supplemented with a proposal for collaborate license production to stimulate the Australian aviation industry. During the same period the design competed against the Mirage F1.
There are common files shared with my other AJS-37 Australian Livery packs, so if you have one or more of those, it is safe to overwrite the files as they will be the same.
