The Kingdom of Sweden has been famously neutral for most of the last two centuries. But even though the country managed to stay clear of big conflicts of the 199th century and remained largely neutral in WW1, its government still had to account for the possibility that Sweden might go to war in the future. That’s why, in the 1930s the kingdom was just as interested in developing their military capabilities as its neighbours. Given the situation in Germany, it was pretty clear that Europe was slowly steering towards a new global conflict.
In the beginning, Sweden bought most of its aircraft abroad. But then there was a moment when they couldn’t get enough P35s from the US, and after it, the government decided to support domestic production and development of military aircraft, and Saab was the company that rose to the challenge.
