Originally posted by -Lonely- Merecir, have you seen the schematics for the Swedish nuclear bomber? I have, you could probably find it on the net. It looks like a J35 Draken on steroids. I think the plan was to cross Finland and bomb the living **** out of Leningrad with it.

Sweden is one of the very few countries who can legally aquire nukes acording to that famous nuclear treaty.

Is that true? I thought it was totally illegal. [/b]

Yeah, the missing number between J35 and AJ37.
The nuclear bomber A36:

Excelent site btw: http://www.canit.se/%7Egriffon/aviation/

But the bomber design had already been scrapped when the riksdag voted on getting nukes or not in the mid 60's.
They would probably have been delivered with missiles of some sort. Named Ragnarök offcourse.
Perhaps using the style the Soviets did with dispersed missile launcher vehicles.

If i remember correctly, the countries who started their nuclear research before a certain date could finnish the research and get nukes.
Sweden started the nuke-research two weeks after Hiroshima...

This research eventually lead to the Swedish nuclear powerplants (built by ASEA(ABB)).
So all the Swedish nuclear stuff it is purley home-grown, no damn spying on others.

Sweden also got a huge part of the worlds uranium deposits that's worth digging upp.

In the film "I am curious (Yellow)" made in 1967 there is a section of the film where they send up a decision by Sweden to adopt a policy of 'non-aggression' or 'peaceful resistance' toward invaders which presumably meant the former Soviet bloc.

Apparently the initiative was passed by Sweden's Parliament with the support of the Social Democrats and Communists with the non-socialist bloc voting against. From the film I gather the vote was extremely close.

Is it normal to wonder about whether Karl XII could live for ever? Get a life!
