Xcode 8 or later • Swift 3 or later

extension Calendar {
    static let gregorian = Calendar(identifier: .gregorian)
}

---

extension Date {
    var startOfWeek: Date {
        return Calendar.gregorian.date(from: Calendar.gregorian.dateComponents([.yearForWeekOfYear, .weekOfYear], from: self))!
    }
    var addingOneWeek: Date {
        return Calendar.gregorian.date(byAdding: DateComponents(weekOfYear: 1), to: self)!
    }
    var nextSunday: Date {
        return startOfWeek.addingOneWeek
    }
    func nextFollowingSundays(_ limit: Int) -> [Date] {
        precondition(limit > 0)
        var sundays = [nextSunday]
        sundays.reserveCapacity(limit)
        return [nextSunday] + (0..<limit-1).compactMap { _ in
            guard let next = sundays.last?.addingOneWeek else { return nil }
            sundays.append(next)
            return next
        }
    }
}

Usage:

let today = Date()
let nextFollowingSundays = today.nextFollowingSundays(52)
nextFollowingSundays.forEach { sunday in
    print(sunday.description(with: .current), terminator: "\n")
}
