The AJS 37 Viggen is a a single-engine, delta wing, canard configuration multirole aircraft with STOL (Short-Takeoff-And-Landing) capabilities, as well as the ability to operate from improvised wartime airfields, like highway strips. It is the successor to J35J Draken.
The only other recorded use of Viggens was during the Aurelian War where it was sporadically used by the Leasath Air Force, which included an ace pilot with the callsign "Saber".[3]

Named Pilots
Saber — Found in Prelude. Spawns with the final JA 37 formation when 7 landing ships and most of the fighters are destroyed.
In real life, Viggen could not refuel mid-air. Despite that the plane can complete refueling minigames in both Ace Combat X and Joint Assault, however the refueling boom from the tanker will float slightly above the fuselage of the plane.
