JR added these comments in the current discussion du jour ...

Hello
can anyone please tell me which countries use the Saabs in
their air forces

Over the years? Finland, Denmark, Austria... the Grippen is
having more scucess (and the cold war is over, which helps).
Been sold to Thailand, South Africa and a eastern europe
country (can't remember which...)

How large are these air forces, JR? I was also wondering about who
is using this plane. With the state of the armed forces in most
countries following drastic reductions once the Cold War was
presumed to be won, I wouldn't think they had that many fighter-
bombers of any manufacturer.


Weren't there Czech rep markings in one or more of the pictures?
