'A partial view of the Luluabourg [Kananga] airport, showing some of the Saab J29 jet planes which have just been placed at the disposition of the UN Operation in the Congo (ONUC).' 29398 was one of two J29Bs brought back to Sweden in April 1963 and is preserved. Photo from: United Nations

29398 preserved in the Fygvapenmuseum at Malmen served with F22 in the Congo for the United Nations Organisation in the early 1960s.

The United Nations intervened when the province of Katanga tried to separate from the freshly independent Belgian Congo in 1960. Sweden sent a small squadron of Tunnans which saw actual combat against Katangese forces. Swedish roundels were overpainted with white UN markings. A very interesting static exhibit at the Malmen airshow, no longer on display in the adjacent museum.
