Photo Comment

A unique design, the Saab 21 is a very rare find these days, with only three complete examples left. Designed with a push-propeller, it was equipped with a jet engine in 1947, becoming the first Swedish fighter jet. Serial 21311 was delivered with a push-propeller to the Swedish Air Force in 1948.
