The air force's wartime strength in 1987 was:
- 7x Fighter squadrons, with JA 37 Viggen fighter aircraft
- 4x Fighter squadrons, with J 35J Draken fighter aircraft
- 5.5x Attack squadrons, with AJ 37 Viggen attack aircraft
- 3x Reconnaissance squadrons, with SF 37 Viggen photo reconnaissance aircraft and SH 37 Viggen maritime reconnaissance/strike aircraft
- 4x Light attack squadrons, with Saab 105A advanced jet trainers
By 1989 the air force had deactivated one J 35J Draken squadron because of the age of the Draken fighters, while adding another JA 37 Viggen squadron in its stead. The four squadrons of the Swedish Air Force Flying School would have become the four light attack squadrons in case of war.
