The Saab 36 (also known as Projekt 1300) was a cancelled Swedish supersonic bomber planned by Saab AB during the 1950s. The aircraft was intended to be able to carry an 800 kg free-falling nuclear weapon, but the Swedish nuclear weapons program was cancelled in the 1960s; the plans for the bomber had been cancelled in 1957. The Saab 36 was to be fitted with delta wings, as was the Saab 35 Draken fighter. The engine was to be a version of the British Bristol Olympus turbojet, the same engine powering the Avro Vulcan jet bomber.

(will provide stats, mockup and blueprints soon)

#

the only known mockup is of an older, different design with engines positioned at it's wings, this was used during wind tunnel testing, however it was later redesigned into the above seen aircraft

#

Length: 17m

Wingspan: 9.6m

Height: 2.5m

Wing Area: 54m2

Payload: 800 Nuclear Bomb

Max Speed: Mach 2.1

Ceiling: 18000m

Combat Radius: aproximately 410km

Crew: 1

Engine: 1x Bristol Olympus Turbojet, same as the Avro Vulcan, reduced to 1 after redesign as it would have had 2

#

although it was not given a special name, many have started calling it the Vargen, "wolf" in swedish

I mean saab started making cars after planes in the 40's (they still make planes after their first car)

It escalates in terms of insanity

#

If I remember correctly, this was suggested before and it got rejected

Swedish B-58

#

they started off making planes, then cars, then military equipment, then more cars, then stopped making cars and focused on planes and equipment

Someone didn’t check previous suggestions

#

Nothing escapes my Saab research

grim coral
#

i checked the suggestion before and i made sure to actually suggest it in a way that would make sense

grim coral
#

again

#

read over the suggestion and i made sure to suggest it in a way that made more sense than the original post

stable fern
grim coral
#

why exactly is this one denied? same reason as the last one i'm guessing

grim coral
#

again

#

i read over the suggestion and i made sure to suggest it in a way that made more sense than the original post

stable fern
snow sphinx
#

why was it denied

grim coral
#

so maybe you'd reconsider

stable fern
#

It wasn’t denied because “worded poorly”

grim coral
stable fern
#

Listen I’m the Saab person

#

I wanted to add this

grim coral
#

if i have to leak classified blueprints for this i will grrr

snow sphinx
#

then add it

stable fern
#

But it’s denied

snow sphinx
#

We need

#

More Saab

stable fern
#

It’s denied for a reason

snow sphinx
#

Also add 2000CF

#

It exists

#

More Saab

grim coral
stable fern
grim coral
#

too little info about it

#

there's blueprints and some images but still too little info grrr

stable fern
#

But the previous design has its issues even with the less than ideal mockup

grim coral
#

i tried to add as much as i could but.. yeah..

#

that's all the info i found about the project

stable fern
#

You copied Wikipedia swag_2

grim coral
#

searched for extra images, stats, maybe blueprints

#

couldn't find much waah

stable fern
#

anyways

#

Denied

grim coral
#

if i find more stuff about it can i re-suggest? swag_2

#

more as in

#

enough to actually make a suggestion

snow sphinx
#

YOOOOOO

#

UNDENIED

#

HE BROUGHT IT BACK

grim coral
#

that's a surprisingly good scale model for an aircraft with LITERALLY 0 INFO ABOUT IT

#

highest resolution secret projects forum blueprints:

grim coral
#

i'm trying my best here fuck you :sad;

cunning reef
#

it's so annoying seeing staff trying to withhold as much info as possible from us

#

just tell us dude Skrolled

#

it's not classified military info or some shit

grim coral
stoic python
#

Senior devs are tho I think

grim coral
#

the aircraft went through a ton of revisions, each with different prototypes and stats and blueprints, the only mockup that's available is the one that's super old and any current statistics and blueprints for the aircraft are.. unreliable at best

#

so, the denial reasons are:
-Not enough info
-Existing info is contradictory and unreliable
-Only mockup is for an old revision

#

-No accurate enough blueprints for said model, or stats

the what

#

You guys can’t deny suggestions right

#

Oh I am clueless then
