From the front it looks like a F-4 Phantom II but the profile and aft views say no (at least to my eye). I did not know the Sweeds had used the Phantom. Is it a knock off manufactured by SAAB?

Yeah, I was wondering if it was an F-4 from the front view also. The exposure was so bad I couldn’t tell if the horizontal stabilizers were pitched down or not. But as it turns you can clearly see not. Probably a European plane designed around the same era and mission.
