EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Saab Sk-35XD Draken AT-160 jet fighter of the Royal Danish Air Force's Esk 729 squadron during the 1993 Royal International Air Tattoo held at RAF Fairford in the United Kingdom. The event, which took place from the 21st to the 27th of July 1993, brought together an impressive collection of aviation enthusiasts and aviation assets from around the world. The Draken, a versatile and powerful fighter aircraft, was a crowd favorite at the Air Tattoo. With its distinctive red, white, and blue livery, the Danish Draken stood out among the various aircraft on display. In this image, we see the plane taxing on the runway, ready for its next demonstration or flight. The Saab Draken, also known as the "Dragon," was a single-engine, multi-role combat aircraft that first entered service in the late 1950s. It was a formidable aircraft in its time, known for its exceptional maneuverability and high performance. The Draken served with several air forces, including the Royal Danish Air Force, until its retirement in the late 2000s. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of military aviation and the enduring appeal of the Saab Draken. It offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the thrill and excitement that comes with witnessing these magnificent machines in flight.
