What changed
- Gameplay
On July 1st 1926, the Swedish Air Force was established as a separate military branch. Today it celebrates its centenary! The country maintained neutrality during both World War II and the Cold War while simultaneously building up its military capabilities. This was particularly true of the Air Force: aviation enthusiasts worldwide are well aware of the Draken, Viggen, Gripen, and other masterpieces of Swedish aircraft engineering.

When: From July 1st (11:00 GMT) until July 4th (11:00 GMT).
Where: Sweden > Aviation > Premium vehicles.

About this aircraft
The J35A Draken is armed with a pair of 30 mm cannons and can carry up to six RB24 air-to-air missiles, twelve m/56D unguided rockets, and a fuel tank on its central hardpoint. It is a very fast and maneuverable fighter but has no countermeasures. However, it’s capable of outrunning and out-turning enemy missiles!
