Remarks
The Saab 105 is only operated by the Swedish Air Force and the Austrian Armed Forces (Saab 105Ö). The two-seat versions can also be used as a four-seat liaison aircraft by replacement of the two ejection seats. The Saab 105 (SK 60) was originally powered by two Turbomeca Aubisque low-bypass turbofan engines, license-built by Svenska Flygmotor as RM9. Most Swedisch SK 60 were later (starting in 1995) modified by replacement of the engines with Williams FJ 44-1C (Volvo Aero RM15) turbofan engines.
