Beaches being raked in Soviet Union is not a myth. I have seen it. To be fair, i have seen the result not the process itself. So i don't know the actual purpose or if it was done by men in uniform. But realistically, what other purpose could it have served? Considering the paranoia of the time i find it plausible even if hardly useful. Even as a kid i was wondering "but what if the spy rakes the sand behind himself?"

I have many memories of the place in the southern Dalarna I lived in when I was growing up. The military had major exercises there. Viggen and Draken flew almost every day in the area at low altitude and also over the village so the houses shook. a pilot flew over the paper mill between the chimney and a building. Could tell many memories from that time. There are also sad memories where they flew over a croft outside the village and scared rabbits they had out so they died from the supersonic bang when they flew over.

Wonderful video. Always great to listen first hand declarations of flightcrews. Keep uploading good stuff!!

Efterlängtad, tack så hjärtligt. :)

The bang he describes sounds like a "superbang", where the front and rear bang can get compressed into a single combined one, far more energetic during a sharp turn.

The story @ 12:55 i can confirm i was in the Groud Crew at the Base back then and i saw the damages.

What a wonderful documentary. Nice work on making it.👍👍👍👍👍

Gjorde Vpl tjänst på F21 Kallax 1978-79. När Viggen kom in över fältet, slog på EBK'n och försvann rakt upp i luften som en raket så skakade marken. Det var mäktigt.

Many years ago (yeah, it sorta sucks getting old even though the alternative is way worse) I was told a story by a friends dad (the dad being ex Swedish Airforce pilot) about a picture taken from a Viggen. The picture only showed some blurry grey construction against a clear blue sky. Apparently the grey stuff was the underside of the bridge between the island of Öland and the main land. Picture had been taken by the Viggens spy cam while the pilot was flying the plane on its back under the bridge. If true or not I do not know. But I do know there were some crazy pilots back then.

@larss337

Actually, as far as I know this happened at F21 in the 1960s. The plane was a J29 "Tunnan" that flew upside down under the bridge at Luleviken. Allegedly the plane was piloted by the head of the reconnaissance squadron. He was ordered to take pictures of the bridge during a exercise. Apparently, thinking that this menial task was somewhat beneath him he decided to spice it up a bit by flying upside down under the bridge with the cameras running. I was told, in 1978, that the pictures were still with the reconnaissance squadron but I never saw them.

Väldigt intressant film. Tog mig tillbaka till min barndom i Bro på -70talet där Viggar från Uppsala flög över på väg till, eller från, Östersjön...

SwAF QRA has historically mainly been carried out with armed canons. On JA37 it's a built in 30mm Oerlikon canon. Swedish radars see all the way across the Baltic Sea, hence the QRA already has a pretty good idea of what to expect before they take off. As I understand, the reason why QRA by standard is not fully equipped with A2A missiles is because the intention is not to come across as aggressive and provocative. The intention is to mark presence and to document for intelligence purposes. As an example, when U137 ran aground and got stuck in 1981, there was a lot of movement/activity on the Sovjet side. At F13 (and probably other air wings as well) you had everyone in high-alert. Jerry told me they were a four-ship on the runway, fully loaded out, engines running, following the developments across the radio. Luckily, tension de-escalated and they were never launched against any attacking sovjet forces. The point is, configuration and load-out was based on the threat and situation.
