Chapter 1: The Lioness and the Prancing Horse

The Monaco sun beat down on the Red Bull garage, reflecting off the sleek, silver RB24 and turning the air into a shimmering haze. Inside, the usual pre-race symphony played out - mechanics scurrying, engines humming, and Max Verstappen barking orders at his engineers with the ferocity of a lion protecting his pride. But amidst the chaos, there was Y/N, her helmet resting on the pit wall, a mischievous glint in her eyes as she watched Carlos Sainz struggle with his new hair gel.

"Mate, you look like you stuck a cactus on your head," Y/N cackled, the sound echoing through the garage. Carlos, ever the good sport, just grinned and swiped a strand of her fiery hair, sending them both into a fit of giggles.

Their laughter was punctuated by the gruff voice of Checo Perez. "Oye, tranquila Y/N! Save some energy for the race, no?" he chuckled, ruffling her hair with a giant hand.

Y/N, at 22, was the youngest driver on the grid and the first female in F1 history. Her arrival had been a meteor shower, blazing a trail of wins and controversy. Her driving was a whirlwind of attack and precision, leaving even seasoned veterans breathless. But it was her personality, her infectious laughter and ability to make friends with everyone (except Charles Leclerc, of course), that truly set her apart.

Except, Max Verstappen, the reigning champion, and Sergio Perez, her teammate, weren't just teammates; they were her big brothers. They'd taken her under their wing since her rookie year, fiercely protective of the lioness they saw in her.

"Easy there, Checo," Max interjected, his voice a low growl. "Y/N needs to be fired up, not calmed down. Remember Baku?"

Baku, where Y/N had pulled off a daring overtake on Charles in the final corner, winning the race by a hair's breadth and leaving the Ferrari driver fuming. Their rivalry was legendary, a dance of aggression and respect that often teetered on the edge of physicality.

"Still say it was a dirty move," Carlos piped up, a playful jab at Y/N.

"Oh, please," Y/N scoffed, her smile turning into a predatory grin. "Leclerc's just salty he can't handle a woman passing him."

The banter continued, a familiar rhythm of pre-race nerves and camaraderie. But beneath the surface, Max, Checo, and even Carlos, harbored a secret suspicion. They saw the way Y/N's eyes lingered on Charles, the way her smile softened when he wasn't looking. They saw the unspoken tension, the charged atmosphere whenever they were together.

"Think there's more to their fire than just competition, eh Max?" Checo asked, his eyes twinkling.

Max frowned, his mind replaying the way Charles had looked at Y/N after the Baku race, a mixture of anger and something else, something deeper. "Don't know, Checo. But one thing's for sure, this season's gonna be a hell of a ride."

And as the roar of engines filled the air, Y/N slipped into her helmet, the lioness ready to pounce. Her eyes, however, couldn't help but dart towards the scarlet Ferrari, searching for a glimpse of the man who both infuriated and intrigued her. Today, she would prove him wrong. Today, the lioness would take the jungle.

To be continued...

FLIGHTLINE: 191- SAAB 37 VIGGEN ("BOLT" OR "TUFTED DUCK")

Designed to replace older fighters and attack aircraft in the Swedish Air Force, the Viggen served from the early 70s into the early 2000s.

Development of the Viggen began almost before the planes it was intended to replace, the SAAB 32 Lansen and 35 Draken, took their maiden flights, with the Swedish Air Force beginning work on requirements in 1955. Included were integration into the STRIL-60 electronic air defense system, supersonic speed at low level and Mach 2 performance at altitude, and the ability to land and take off from short, rough fields or even stretches of highway. The latter was further codified in Bas 60, a system of dispersal bases and alternate runways developed by the Swedish Air Force starting in 1958. In the event of war, individual squadrons would be dispersed to krigsflygbaser ("wartime air bases") which had been established ahead of time. Additionally, civilian air ports and specially built sections of the national highway system could also be used as alternatives. As a result, the new aircraft would need to be able to land and take off in 500 meters or less, and further requirements included a modest landing speed at low angles of attack in order to avoid damaging ad hoc runways.

SAAB began design work on a new aircraft between 1952 and 1957, examining and discarding over 100 concepts along the way. Aircraft with one or two engines, tailless delta wings, double deltas, canard designs, and VTOL aircraft incorporating lift jets were all conceived, but by 1963 the new plane, officially titled Aircraft System 37, had taken the form of a single engined aircraft with a double-delta wing mounted low and to the stern, with a large canard foreplane mounted high on the intakes. This configuration had been proven to give the best balance of performance at low and high altitude as well as the needed STOL capability and maneuverability expected of a front-line strike fighter. A defense treaty signed between Sweden and the United States in 1960 allowed access to US research and technology, which resulted in SAAB selecting a license built P&W turbofan to power the System 37. The following year, construction of the first prototype of what became the Viggen began.

DESIGN AND SPECIFICATIONS

-Orthograph of the J 37 Viggen. | Illustration: Kaboldy

The SAAB 37 was roughly the same size as the J 35 Draken, being 16.4m long, with a wingspan of 10.6m, and a height of 5.9m. Empty weight was 9,500kg, while max TO weight varied from 16,400kg to 17,000kg depending on the variant. Maximum speed was Mach 2.1 (2,231 kph) at 11,000 meters, while maximum altitude was 18,000 meters. Six fuel tanks within the aircraft provided a capacity of 5,000 liters of fuel, giving the Viggen a combat radius of 1,000km and a ferry range of 1,800km, while an auxiliary drop tank of 1,500l could also be added to further increase the range. Power was provided by a Volvo RM8A turbofan, a modified and license-built version of the P&W JT8D originally designed for the Boeing 727 and 737. Volvo modified the P&W engine design, with more robust materials going into the manufacture to withstand sustained flight at Mach 2, as well as the addition of an afterburner and thrust reverser, making it the first turbofan so equipped. The RM8A had a dry thrust of 65.6kN and with AB this increased to 115.6kN. As the 37 was designed to be both mechanically simple and easy to maintain, the inlets were D-shaped and without adjustable geometry ramps as on contemporary fighters like the F-4, instead only simple boundary layer splitter plates were incorporated. The thrust-reverser could be preset to engage once the nose gear strut compressed, an innovative feature. Electrical power was provided through a 60kVA generator, and in emergencies a ram-air turbine capable of generating 6kVA was automatically deployed.

The 37's airframe was composed of an aluminum honeycomb structure; a ring aft of the engine was fabricated from titanium for heat-resistance. In order to pull the Viggen into smaller hangars and hardened shelters, the vertical stabilizer cold be folded down via an actuator. The main landing gear, designed for short, rough fields as well as temporary landing strips or stretches of highway, had two wheels arranged in tandem; both wheels were fitted with anti-skid brakes.

The Viggen used a sophisticated suite of avionics, including the Central Kalkylator 37 (CK37, "Central Calculator 37), the first airborne computer to utilize integrated circuits. This digital computer replaced the analogue machines used on earlier aircraft, such as the J 35, which had proven to be difficult to maintain as well as inaccurate in use. On later models of the Viggen, the CK37 was replaced by a license-built copy of the American CD107, which was more powerful. The Viggen used electronics countermeasure equipment developed by Satt Elektronik, including radar warning receivers in the wings and tail, as well as infrared warning receivers. Optionally, an optional Ericsson Erijammer pod and/or SAAB BOZ-100 chaff/flare pod could be added. All told, the SAAB 37 carried 600kg of avionics, a substantial load for single-seat, single engine fighter of the era. Depending on the variant, the Viggen was equipped with either the Ericsson PS 37 or PS 46 radar, both of which operated in the X-band. The PS 37 was capable of air-to-ground and air-to-air telemetry, search, track, terrain-avoidance and cartography, while the more advanced PS 46 had a look-down/shoot-down capacity in excess of 50km, and which could track two targets simultaneously.

The cockpit displays of the 37 included traditional "steam gauge" instruments, as well as a HUD and three CRT screen, which were used to display radar imagery, computer-generated maps, as well as flight and weapons information. During the late 1990s, these CRTs were replaced by LCD screens. The right side of the console panel had dedicated controls and indicators for weapons as well as navigation, oxygen, windshield de-fogging, IFF, and lighting. Situated on the left side were controls for the radar, as well as the landing gear handle, radio controls and the cabin pressure indicator.

The pilot was seated on a Raketstol 37 ("Rocket chair 37"), designed for low-altitude, high-speed ejections, and was the last Saab-designed seat used. Once triggered, the entire ejection sequence was automated, including separation of the seat from the pilot. Manual triggers were included in case of malfunction. On twin-seat versions, the pilot in the front cockpit can trigger ejection for both seats.

VARIANTS AND WEAPONS

There were five variants of the Viggen, along with several upgrades and service-life extensions. The AJ 37 (Attack Jakt, "Strike Fighter") was the first to enter service, and was an attack variant with a secondary fighter mission. As such, the AJ's seven pylons could carry 7,000kg of stores, including unguided bombs and pods, such as the Bofors M70, for rockets, as well as the Rb04 anti-ship missile and the Rb05 air-to-surface missile (roughly equivalent to the American Bullpup). No cannon was fitted, though one or two pods could be carried, each of which housed a license-built Aden 30mm cannon and 150 rounds of ammunition. Finally, license-built copies of the AIM-9 Sidewinder, known as the Rb24, could be carried for self-defense. The Viggen was also cleared to carry AIM-4 Falcons, known as the Rb28 in Swedish service, but these were in the process of being phased out. The AJ 37's radar was not spec'd for BVR missiles. 109 AJ 37s were produced.

The second model was the SF 37 (Spanings Foto, "Photo Reconnaissance"), which was a modification of the AJ fuselage, with a new nose containing 7 cameras replacing the radar of the strike version. The camera fit included vertical and oblique cameras, as well as an infrared line scanner and data recording unit. Additional pods could be carried under the intakes, including a "Red Barron" night recon unit or a forward-looking long-range optical (LORP) pod. The SF 37 was fitted with radar-warning receivers and countermeasures pods, and could carry self-defense Sidewinders, but the plane lacked a radar, and was not fitted with a gunsight. 28 total SF 37s were completed.

The third variant was the SH 37 (Spanings Havsoevervakning, "Coastal Surveillance & Reconnaissance") model, which was externally identical to the AJ 37, but the nose contained a new Ericsson PS-371/A radar, which was optimized for maritime surveillance. Like the SF 37, the SH could carry the Red Barron or LORP camera pods, but like the AJ it could also carry the Rb04 anti-ship missile, as well as the other offensive and defensive equipment of the strike version. 27 SH 37 aircraft were built between 1977 and 1979, and Flygvapnet reconnaissance squadrons operated a mix of the SF 37 and SH 37.

A two-seat trainer variant was not initially ordered, but the Swedish Air Force reversed itself, and one of the prototypes was completed as a trainer, designated the Sk 37 (Skol, "School"). Based on the AJ 37 airframe, a second cockpit was grafted onto the fuselage, with part of a fuel tank being removed to make space. Two periscopes were added to the instructor's cockpit to improve his view. The tail fin was also modified, with a 10cm extension added to the top of the fin. The trainer version did not have a radar, and although stores could be fitted the the accurate delivery of bombs was somewhat compromised. Interestingly, the Sk retained the fairings for the radar warning gear, though the RWR equipment was not carried. 17 Sk 37s were produced.

The final production variant was the JA 37 (Jakt, "Fighter"), which saw a longer development as the Flygvapnet felt no rush to retire the J 35 Draken. The JA variant had the same tail extension as the Sk 37, and the fuselage was also stretched 10cm ahead of the wing to accommodate the more powerful RM8B engine, which had a maximum output of 125kN with afterburner. The interceptor had four elevator actuators versus the three present on the other models of Viggen, as the Flygvapnet saw the need for additional maneuverability, and the structure was reinforced to withstand higher stresses. In total, a JA 37 was approximately 400kg heavier than an AJ 37. The fighter carried different avionics than the other Viggen as well, including a PS-46/A radar, with look-down/shoot-down capacity and a range of 48km. The JA 37 also carried a more powerful central computer, the Garrett LD-5 digital air data computer (the same unit carried on the F-14 Tomcat), and one of the first digital flight-control systems. The fighter version was armed with a single Oerlikon KCA 30mm cannon, which had more range and punch than the Aden cannon carried by the AJ 37. The JA 37 had the same seven pylons as other models, with the center hardpoint being the only "wet" (capable of carrying a fuel tank) one. The other pylons could carry up to four Rb24 Sidewinders, as well as two Rb71 Skyflash semi-active radar homing (SARH) missiles. The JA 37 could carry the M70 rocket pods, with the gunsight being used for aiming, but the type was not capable of carrying the other bombs and missiles available to the AJ 37.

TESTING AND OPERATIONAL HISTORY

The first Viggen prototype was rolled out of the factory on 24 November 1966, with maiden flight occurring on 8 February 1967, the flight lasting 43 minutes. The second Viggen followed in flight on 21 September '67, and the third on 29 March 1968. By April 1969, all six of the single seat prototypes were flying in different trials for the forthcoming AJ 37 variant. The first aircraft was involved in a fatal accident on 31 May 1968 when the pilot dropped a flight checklist and in reaching for it triggered the ejection seat. Being an early model, it was not a true "zero-zero" seat, and the parachute did not open in time, killing test pilot Lennart Fryoe. The aircraft was repaired and returned to flight shortly thereafter. The fourth prototype was written off after leaving the runway and rolling over during a test on the thrust reverser on 7 May 1969, though the pilot was not seriously injured. That same month, the Viggen made its first public world-wide appearance at the Paris Air Show. On 5 April 1968, a production order for 175 Viggens, a mix of AJ, SF, SH and Sk variants, was placed, with the first production AJ 37 having its maiden flight on 23 February 1971 and delivery to the Flygvapnet in June of that year.

The Skaraborg Air Force Wing became the first wing to receive the Viggen in 1971, with pilots completing a 450 hour course, first in the SAAB 105 trainer, then the J 32 Lansen before graduating to the Sk 37 tainer and finally the AJ 37. Dedicated simulators were also used, which was later cited as a major factor in pilot's ease of flying the new plane. Still, it took until October 1973 for the Wing to reach full effectiveness; by May 1974 two squadrons were fully operational with the third rapidly approaching complete status. The SH 37 maritime recon variant was officially introduced in 1975, followed in 1977 by the SF photo recon version. In September 1980 the JA 37 fighter model was added, with the Bråvalla Air Force Wing being the first to convert. By the mid-1980s, the Viggen was the Flygvapnet's primary air-defense platform, with the older Lansen relegated to target-tugs and electronics warfare, while the last J 35F wing converted in 1985.

The Viggen proved to be as easy to maintain as SAAB's engineers intended, with a team of five conscripts under the supervision of one chief mechanic able to keep a plane flying. Refueling and rearming a Viggen could be accomplished in as little as ten minutes, and an engine change could be completed in four hours. The 37 required 9 hours of front-line maintenance and 22 hours of depot level maintenance per flight hour, compared to the J 35, which required a total of 50 hours of maintenance per flight hour.

The effectiveness of the Viggen, as well as the Swedish air defense network as a whole, was demonstrated in the 1980s when, on several occasions. JA 37s tracked USAF SR-71 Blackbirds on their tracks into and out of Soviet airspace. Aided by the predicable course of the Blackbirds, and fed intercept data from ground controllers, the Viggen became the only aircraft acknowledged to have achieved radar lock-on of an SR-71, despite heavy jamming efforts by the American spy planes. These intercepts were kept classified well into the 2000s.

In the early 1990s, an upgrade program was started to modify the AJ, SF and SH variants to a single common configuration, known as the AJS 37. The modified Viggen would be a multi-role aircraft, and numerous upgrades were completed on the aircraft, including the addition of a new data bus and radar, which allowed the AJS 37s to carry AIM-120 AMRAAM missiles (license-built as the Rb99). The upgraded Viggen were also capable of carrying the Rb75, a license-built copy of the AGM-65 Maverick and the Rb15F, an upgrade of the Rb4 anti-ship missile. In all, 115 AJS 37 were completed, with maiden flight of the first converted aircraft occurring on 4 June 1996.

Ten Sk 37s, meanwhile, were converted to electronics warfare trainers between 1998 and 2000, which allowed the planes to act as aggressors during training exercises. This conversion was fairly involved, adding a new data bus, a GPS receiver and comprehensive reworking of the former instructor pilot's cockpit which included flat-panel displays, jammer controls and a separate radio for the electronics warfare officer. The Sk37 E Stoer ("Jammer") was also modified to carry a built-in radar jammer as well as external ECM and flare/chaff pods. The Stoer could also act operationally if the need arose.

The JA 37 fighters also received a series of upgrades in the 90s, including glass cockpit displays, new mission computers and data busses, improved ECM capabilities, a Synthetic Attitude Heading Reference System (SAHRS) to improve navigation, and an upgraded radar that allowed them to also carry the Rb99 AMRAAM missile.

Despite these upgrades, the Viggens were rapidly approaching the end of their service lives, and in fact had received several extensions due to the protracted development and production of the JAS 39 Grippen that was to take their place. These issues were finally sorted out in the early 2000s, and the final JA 37D was retired from Swedish service in 2005, while the Sk 37E held on until 2007. There were no export operators of the Viggen, despite the proposed 37X variant for Norway in the late 60s, and an attempt in 1975 to sell the 37E model to NATO as a replacement for the F-104 Starfighter.

SURVIVORS

Two Viggen, an AJS and an Sk, are registered to the Swedish Air Force Historic Flight association and are maintained in flight-worthy condition, registered as SE-DXN and SE-DXO respectively. Nearly two dozen Viggen, in part or in whole, are on display in Sweden and across Europe.

Fantasy Injury Updates: Latest news on Russell Wilson, Rob Gronkowski, Chris Carson, more affecting Week 10 rankings

Russell Wilson, Rob Gronkowski, Chris Carson, Antonio Brown, and Logan Thomas were all on bye last week, but they likely wouldn’t have played anyway, as all have been battling injuries. Heading into Week 10, it’s unclear how many will suit up. All are heavy hitters at their respective positions, so the latest injury updates will have a big effect on Week 10 fantasy rankings.

For injury updates on Damien Harris, Rhamondre Stevenson, Zack Moss, and Chase Edmonds, go here. For all the latest fantasy news, follow us on Twitter @SN_Fantasy.

WEEK 10 WAIVER WIRE: Top pickups

Russell Wilson injury update

UPDATE: Wilson has been cleared to play in Week 10 and has implied he’ll be back for Sunday’s game against the Packers.

Wilson (finger) could return from IR as soon as this week against Green Bay, so his fantasy owners will be watching his status closely heading into the weekend. There haven’t been many reports on his recovery since he originially suffered the injury, but we’ll update this post as news comes in. Even with injury concerns, Wilson would be right in the mix as a QB1 if he does play.

If he’s out, Geno Smith will be our QB27 this week. Green Bay suddenly looks strong on defense and is a top-10 unit against fantasy quarterbacks.

WEEK 10 PPR RANKINGS: Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker

Rob Gronkowski injury update

Gronkowski (back) briefly returned to action in Week 8 against the Saints but was ultimately ruled out early in the game after limited action. Since the Bucs were on a bye, there haven’t been updates on his status, but perhaps the bye week was enough time for him to get healthy. As with all of these guys coming off a bye, we’ll be at the mercy of future injury reports this week.

Tampa plays Washington in Week 10, and while they’re a middle-of-the-pack unit against TEs statistically, they’ve had one of the easier schedules and have largely avoided a ton of studs. That said, we like Gronk as our TE7 in PPR leagues and TE5 in standard leagues.

WEEK 10 STANDARD RANKINGS: Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker

Chris Carson injury update

UPDATE: Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Carson will be “on the field” on Wednesday, but he also cautioned that they’re taking it “one day at a time” with Carson.

Carson (neck) would practice this week if it were up to him, but it’s unclear whether he’ll get his wish at this point in the week. There was originally no timetable for his return, and there have been concerning reports about his injury status, so we think it’s unlikely he’s back against Green Bay. If he is expected to play, we’ll update his status and our Week 10 RB rankings.

However, this figures to be Alex Collins’ backfield while Carson remains out, but Rashaad Penny may eat into his touches more. Overall, it’s a tough backfield to trust, and we rank Collins as the RB25 in standard and RB24 in PPR. Even if Collins is the workhorse, it’s tough to think he’ll have a lot of success if Geno Smith remains the starter. Quarterback success often leads to running back success.

Antonio Brown injury update

UPDATE: Brown was still in a walking boot on Monday.

Brown (ankle) is expected to return in Week 10 against Washington, so those who got him at a great price in preseason drafts will reap the benefits once again.

With Washington being the third-worst defense against fantasy WRs, we rank Brown as the WR14 in PPR leagues and WR12 in standard. Truth be told, his upside is the No. 1 overall WR in fantasy, but his floor could be ultra-low coming off an injury in a crowded WR room. All that said, he’s obviously a must-start.

Logan Thomas injury update

Thomas (hamstring) has been out since Week 3, but he’ll reportedly return to practice this week, and figures to play in Week 10 against Tampa Bay. He’s currently found on nearly half of all Yahoo league waiver wires, and you should roster him a soon as you read this. It’s not common for a player with top-five upside at their position to be available in Week 10, so now is your chance to get a difference-maker at tight end if you don’t have one.

Tampa is the 11th-worst defense against fantasy tight ends, so we rank Thomas as our TE6 in PPR leagues and TE7 in standard leagues.
