Sweden
Swedish test pilots performed about 20 test flights with the G-1. They were very fond of the flight model and soon the Swedish government placed an order for a series of 18 planes (Mercury's, with extra "bathtubs"), without engines that were supposed to be delivered by a Swedish license program. It was not clear yet which engines were supposed to be used. These planes got the Swedish type number S-13 (S for Spaning, scouting). Also another order for 77 G-1 for the role of fighter bombers came in. They were to enter the Swedish air force as B-7. Also here no indication of the engine to be used. All G-1's had to be equipped with airbrakes.
