The Saab {{PAGENAME}} Lansen is a powerful interceptor built for all-weather operations. Being the descendant of the earlier [[A32A]], this version focuses on air-to-air combat instead of its previous role as an air-to-ground platform. To achieve this, the {{PAGENAME}} received the new RM6A engine. This engine is a Swedish license-produced variant of the Avon 300, producing a staggering 6810kgf when engaged with full afterburner. This engine was originally developed for the Lightning F.6. This makes the {{PAGENAME}} a subsonic plane with a supersonic engine, resulting in incredible acceleration and energy retention. Staying fast and avoiding dogfights is the main advantage of the {{PAGENAME}}, as the airframe is relatively large and cumbersome, not really meant for aerial maneuvers. However, a single pass is more than enough thanks to four center-mounted Akan. m/55 cannons, with a incredible 24kg burst mass. The {{PAGENAME}} is also outfitted with four Rb24 air-to-air missiles capable of killing enemies far beyond the planes reach. This, combined with the incredible thrust, let's the '''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' decide when, and how to strike down opponents. A luxury most planes can only dream of.
+
=== Main armament ===
 +
''Give the reader information about the characteristics of the main gun. Assess its effectiveness in a battle based on the reloading speed, ballistics and the power of shells. Do not forget about the flexibility of the fire, that is how quickly the cannon can be aimed at the target, open fire on it and aim at another enemy. Add a link to the main article on the gun: <code><nowiki>{{main|Name of the weapon}}</nowiki></code>. Describe in general terms the ammunition available for the main gun. Advise about how to use them and how to fill the ammunition storage.''

The {{PAGENAME}} features good pilot protection. A 50mm bulletproof screen, and plates surrounding the two pilots, reaching thickness levels of between 5 to 15 millimeters. These plates were originally meant to save the pilot from incoming ground-fire due to it's earlier ground-attack purpose. Thanks to this excellent protection, as well as having two pilots instead of one, dying by a pilot knockout is highly unlikely in comparison to other fighters of the same rank. The {{PAGENAME}} is also survivable in terms of fuselage strength. A single pass rarely knocks it out immediately, and seems more on-par with the [[S.O.4050 Vautour IIA|Vautour IIA]] than other fighters at its rank. This strength can be contributed to the separated fuel-tanks, as well as the short engine (in relation to the fuselage). This high survivability makes the {{PAGENAME}} quite forgiving for making mistakes, as it usually isn't hard to return back to base for repairs. '''It is important, however, to avoid all damage possible''', as even the slightest fuselage damage can heavily cripple the {{PAGENAME}}<nowiki/>'s general flight performance. A badly damaged fuselage makes the {{PAGENAME}} unable to retain energy, keeping it away from its main advantage. The {{PAGENAME}} is also prone to catch fire. Although the fire is easily put out, the damage suffered is usually more than fatal.

This aircraft excels at being fast, it is important to use that advantage to quickly Boom & Zoom any unsuspecting enemies. Avoid utilising turning manoeuvres with other aircraft as every aircraft with the exception of the F-100D will shake you rather easily and you risk being pulled into a "reversal". Although you can easily out-run most jets, some aircraft like the Etendard IVM, MiG-17AS and Shenyang F-5 will easily catch up. These aircraft prove deadly to the {{PAGENAME}} as they will keep up with your turns if you try to evade them, not to mention they also carry air-to-air missiles which they will certainly use to force you to bleed speed (if you don't get destroyed in the process). Your safest bet is to go in a straight line hugging the maximum safe speed (concern for realistic and simulator battles) and hope they pull away.

'''Pros:'''
 
'''Pros:'''
  
−
* Excellent top speed - outruns most opponents
+
* The gun has good penetration and damage
−
* 4x 30mm Akan m/55 - incredible burst mass and damage
+
* Four second reload time makes it much easier to dispatch enemy tanks
−
* 4x Rb-24 air-to-air missiles - Highly potent at its battle rating
+
* The frontal armour is heavily sloped, which makes it quite tough even though being only 40 mm thick
−
* Powerful afterburning engine - excellent acceleration & energy retention
+
* Has a tiny profile, making it much easier to hide in realistic and simulator battles
−
* Integrated radar
+
* Because the engine is located at the front most shots will not go through the whole tank if it penetrates and will simply be absorbed
−
* Above-average roll-rate
+
* Has a 30 mm gun shield, which almost completely blocks any shrapnel
−
* Resistant to high-G maneuvers (up to 10Gs)
 
−

−
* Fowler flap design - provides excellent lift at low speeds
 
  
 
'''Cons:'''
 
'''Cons:'''
  
−
* Mediocre maneuverability, almost every opponent it faces can out-maneuver it

* The sloped frontal armour becomes redundant if faced with an enemy above it
−
* Difficult to land - Landing flaps rip at 300kph
+
* Very thin side and rear armour, any gun larger than a machine gun can go through
−
* Very inefficient air-brake design - requires high angle-of-attack or aggressive banking to slow down
+
* The gun is very hard to aim
−
* Large target - Easy to hit
+
* The turret is fixed to the hull and cannot swivel
−
* High rate of fire - ammunition will deplete very quickly, trigger control required

In the year 1948, SAAB started to develop a new type of multi purpose aircraft with capabilities such as a strike-fighter, interceptor or reconnaissance aircraft. The project was called P1150 and had the intent to replace the B18, J21A, A21R and the J30 aircraft. After some testing, a swept wing design typical for the time period was decided upon. After some testing with a Swedish jet engine design called the Dovern, it was decided that the engine lacked the desired power so a swap to the British Rolls-Royce Avon Mk.21 engine was decided upon due to its ability to produce more power without its afterburner on than the Dovern could even with the afterburner engaged. The airplane was designated the Saab 32 Lansen and flew for the first time in November 1952 with Bengt Olow as pilot.

A total of 447 aircraft were delivered to the Swedish Air Force from 1955 until 1960. These were modified and renovated until its retirement in 1997. A total of 10 variants were in service, including the prototype P1150.

Armaments

Main armament

Give the reader information about the characteristics of the main gun. Assess its effectiveness in a battle based on the reloading speed, ballistics and the power of shells. Do not forget about the flexibility of the fire, that is how quickly the cannon can be aimed at the target, open fire on it and aim at another enemy. Add a link to the main article on the gun: {{main|Name of the weapon}}. Describe in general terms the ammunition available for the main gun. Advise about how to use them and how to fill the ammunition storage.

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • The gun has good penetration and damage
  • Four second reload time makes it much easier to dispatch enemy tanks
  • The frontal armour is heavily sloped, which makes it quite tough even though being only 40 mm thick
  • Has a tiny profile, making it much easier to hide in realistic and simulator battles
  • Because the engine is located at the front most shots will not go through the whole tank if it penetrates and will simply be absorbed
  • Has a 30 mm gun shield, which almost completely blocks any shrapnel

Cons:

  • The sloped frontal armour becomes redundant if faced with an enemy above it
  • Very thin side and rear armour, any gun larger than a machine gun can go through
  • The gun is very hard to aim
  • The turret is fixed to the hull and cannot swivel
  • APDSFS and APDS shells will go straight through the front, most of the time no matter the angle

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).
