HISTORY:
In 1946, the Swedish Air Force purchased its first batch of 70 FB 1 Vampires, having been looking for a jet-powered fighter to replace the outdated SAAB 21 and J 22 aircraft of its fighter force. In Swedish service, the Vampire received the designation J 28A. In 1949, a total of 310 of the more modern FB.50s, designated J 28B were procured. The last of these was delivered in 1952, after which all piston-engined fighters were decommissioned. In 1956, the Swedish Vampires were retired from the fighter role and in 1968, the final Vampire trainer was retired.
