Should F17 -171 Fighter Squadron, but no unit marks on any jets.

As told at the Swedish Air Force air show 2006, unit marks have disappeared from all Gripens, as these machines are pooled between all Gripen squadrons in Flygvapnet.

The U-2 serials are different than reported before, due to a transponder change:

Found the following on a UK forum

68-10337,80-1086,80-1087,80-1071
