Description
The AJ37 Viggen is a rank VII Swedish strike aircraft with a battle rating of 10.3 (AB), 10.7 (RB), and 11.0 (SB). It was introduced in Update "Ground Breaking".
General info
Flight performance
Describe how the aircraft behaves in the air. Speed, manoeuvrability, acceleration and allowable loads - these are the most important characteristics of the vehicle.

Survivability and armour
Examine the survivability of the aircraft. Note how vulnerable the structure is and how secure the pilot is, whether the fuel tanks are armoured, etc. Describe the armour, if there is any, and also mention the vulnerability of other critical aircraft systems.

Usage in battles
In realistic battles you pray and runn awayyyyy for as long as gaigin ont give a update for geting beter mistiles right from the start othewrise gunn spread is insane so ground attacking is no go and stock 10g 1,7-mach mistiles will be outrunn and outurned by anything on its br.
prepare atleast 500k credits if going to grind that plane from stock as it usualy gets no xp per battle at all when its stock
you need to take looots of fuel or else will be not able to use afterburner (1s afterburing eats around 7-10 s of fuel time and because of that 50 m fuel time will be enought for 15 minutes if you going to use afterburner)
weapons firerate is nowerenear real ground atack plane so you might need more than single pass above light bunker. (not recomended plane gets poor xp for atacking ground targets aparently 56xp per battle for whole mag of bullets to ground targets will be good given stock aquarcy of the weapons)
and spread makes balistic computer usles completly so its recomended to forget it exists on that plane.
On low speed (less than 750km/h) plane roll is extreeemly poor and despite being able to turn well you might not be able to turn precise enought to get a shot at enemy planes
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Excellent top speed at sea-Level
- Strong guns with two gunpods
- Access to AIM-9J
- Access to Maverick air-to-ground missiles (RB 75)
Cons:
- CAS options available do not allow bringing more than one type of missile, rocket, or bomb
- Bleeds energy quickly with tight turns
- Countermeasures restrict maximum allowed suspended armaments
History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft 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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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).
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.

Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:
- reference to the series of the aircraft;
- links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.
