A couple months ago I was working in Goteborg Sweeden, The home of Volvo.
I took some time and went to the Volvo Museum. Here are some pics to enjoy.

Thanks for the great shots, I have a buddy that has a brand new never used 100 drive. He should donate it to them.

Thanks for sharing those pix. It appears from the slump in the pilots stance that he depicts the dejection experienced by the original test pilot upon discovering he was chosen to take the test first hop in the worlds first "Volvo, Wingless, Carrier-based (Kaarier, in Swedish) , Diesel-Powered (OttoBaamen), Aircraft, Military" also known as the VW-KABAM!

I have never seen a Volvo jet drive in my 31 years, as shown in the pics. Must have been a military or commercial application, or maybe some of you have seen it on watercraft...

Another interesting one is top right- it appears that the lower unit only swivels. Interesting. Thanks for sharing the pics!
