These are the pictures of my finished SK-37 Viggen, from the Special Hobby kit.

 

Several modification were made, especially in the rear cockpit and on the landing gears. I have used the CMK resin set for the cockpits and the Reskit jet exhaust. I have used masks from Special Masks to paint the camo scheme

 

I was a nice pleasure to build this kit.

 

The build is presented here.

Fantastic build! Really liked your attention to details.... that's why I hate to mention that you forgot a teeny tiny detail, the rearward radar warning sensor 😬.

Only a nerd like me would notice such a thing, so 99,9999% of ppl wouldn't notice it and the only reason I mention it is because of your meticulous detailing of the kit.

Outstanding work really!

I have made the correction. It is difficult to see the top part of the pyramidal detector so I had to improvise a little ... 

I've also checked and Special Hobby forgot this part even on the other Viggen kits.

Finally, it looks like that

Does this appear on a JA37 Viggen as well?

It's either this one or the hemispherical one, check on pictures (on some aircraft presented in museum, it could be replaced by a circle plate)

Yes it does, but on the JA 37 it is the shape of a dome with two "eyes" facing rear right and rear left.

 

The one in this build is used on the AJ-family of Viggens, i.e. the AJ, SK, SH, SF (including AJS, AJSH, AJSF). Despite the obvious fact that some JA 37:s in museums hade this type, it wasn't compatible with operational JA 37:s. Only the dome variant used on operational JA 37:s.
