A Centrala Verstäderna (CV)-license built Fokker C.V can be found on display with the excellent Flygvapenmuseum. A total of 14 were purchased from Fokker, The Netherlands, and 35 were built by CV in Malmen. After it proved unsuccesful as a figher (designated J3) the type was relegated to reconnaissance duties as the S6. The reconnaissance equipment consisted of one hand-held camera. This aircraft served from 1934 till 1945. The aircraft was renovated and flew in 1962 to celebrate 50 years powered flight in Sweden and last flew in 1963 on a round trip to the Netherlands for the RNLAF jubilee!

In service, it soon became apparent to the Flygvapnet that the S 6 was not good enough to serve as a fighter aircraft. The type was instead used for reconnaissance and photography, but also as a trainer and for fire fighting. This S 6B was manufactured under licence by Centrala flygverkastaden Malmslätt in 1934 and was in service for eleven years. It was refurbished to airworthy condition in connection with the 50th anniversary of Swedish military aviation in 1962 and made its final flight at an event in Holland the following year.

Fokker C.Ve built in 1934 under licence by Central Verk Malmen. Served until retirement in 1945. From the Swedish AF over 40 years ago.

Seen here on skis, the C.V was the most succesful military Fokker aircraft of the interwar years. This example was licence-built here at Malmen in 1934.
