He might be surprised to tell a friend who pays little attention to the military that Sweden is a country with very strong military technology. After all, from the perspective of book strength, Sweden is located in the bitter cold of Northern Europe, the population will exceed 10 million, although it has always been known as a high welfare and high-income country, but the GDP in 2021 is only 622.4 billion US dollars, which is nearly 200 billion US dollars worse than another more confusing Switzerland. But in terms of military equipment, Sweden is indeed a real strongman, not only advanced in performance but also very distinctive, including artillery, anti-ship missiles, torpedoes, radar and so on. Today, we will introduce a classic Swedish homemade large equipment from the four directions of underwater/surface/land/air.

Gotland-class AIP conventional submarine
I don't know if it is cold knowledge, Sweden has not joined NATO so far. Although nominally neutral, in the face of the pressure of the former Soviet Red Navy, it still needs to fight iron itself, and the best countermeasure is submarines. After World War II, the Swedish Navy developed a variety of conventional submarines, such as the A12 Seasnake class submarine, the A14 Water Monster class submarine, the A17 West Jötland class submarine, and the Gothland class submarine, the pioneer of AIP conventional submarines.

The Most famous of the Gotland-class submarines is the V4-275R Stirling engine used, the Stirling engine AIP system is mainly composed of a Stirling engine, a generator, a liquid oxygen system, an oil supply system, a cooling system, a working medium system and a control system. The use of liquid oxygen and diesel fuel in the pressurized combustion chamber for combustion, the resulting heat energy continues to supply the heating circulation system, promote the piston movement in the cylinder, so that the heat energy is converted into mechanical energy, and then converted from the generator set to direct current. It has the advantages of low operating noise and low noise, but the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, the power density is low. Another advantage of the Stirling AIP system is that the original design of the submarine is small, and it can even be installed on the basis of the original submarine, and the Swedish Navy has installed the original two West Ottland-class submarines with the AIP system and renamed it the South Manland-class submarine.

The Gotland-class submarines were built and commissioned in the 1990s with a total of three in service.

Visby-class light stealth frigate
Speaking of surface equipment of the Swedish Navy, sweden is backed by the Baltic Sea. The special geographical environment of the Shallow, Icy, reef-rich Baltic Sea is very suitable for the activities of small ships with shallow drafts and flexible maneuvers, so the Surface Ship Unit of the Swedish Navy is dominated by missile boats and corvettes. The Visby-class frigates are the surface aces of the Swedish Navy.

A total of 5 Visby-class frigates were in service, and in terms of armament, the bow was equipped with a Bofors MK-3 SAK 57 mm rapid-fire gun, using a stealth turret, and the barrel could be folded into the turret when not in use. Anti-ship missiles can be equipped with their own two quad RBS-15 MK3 anti-ship missile launchers, in terms of anti-submarine, equipped with four Swedish characteristics of 400 mm torpedo launchers, arranged in the interior of the rear section of the hull, can launch homemade TP45 light anti-submarine torpedoes, and can also carry an A-109M anti-submarine helicopter to perform long-range anti-submarine combat missions.

This is really the appearance of the face represents the combat effectiveness
Strv103 main battle tank
Next is the V series tank that WOT tank world players are most familiar with, and after playing for so long, the V series tank should be the most distinctive. Swedish tanks should have a pitch angle, a magazine with a magazine, and an iron head with an iron head. In reality, the Swedish Army's Strv103 main battle tank is the main equipment of the Swedish Army.
I play Light Tan and quite like to kill 103B
Strv103 main battle tank for three-a-side main battle tank, the main gun is a Bofors company 62 times the caliber of the 105 mm L74 cannon, the game is a high penetration laser cannon, 25 rounds of spare ammunition, the average rate of fire 10 ~ 15 rounds / min, DPM is not low. In terms of power, the gas turbine and diesel engine are used to drive the power unit, the maximum highway speed is 50km/h, and the average off-road speed can reach 30~40km/h. Overall, it was a very good defensive tank, equipped with the Swedish Army from 1966 to 300 in 1971.
The mines are in full swing
JAS-39 Gripen fighter
Sweden's self-made air combat equipment masterpiece is naturally the best-selling JAS-39 Gripen fighter in the world, as one of the few countries in the world that can develop advanced fighters by itself, JAS-39 Gripen fighter not only won the order of the Swedish Air Force, but also sold well to the Czech Republic, Hungary, South Africa, Brazil, Thailand, Switzerland and other countries, with high cost performance.
Jas-39 Gripen fighter of the Brazilian Air Force
The JAS-39 Gripen fighter made its first flight in 1988 and is a classic third-generation fighter with a canard wing design. The engine uses a single-engine general-engine RM12 afterburner turbofan engine (based on the F404-400 engine), which has multi-purpose combat capabilities, which can also be seen from the positioning of the JAS-39 Gripen fighter ("JAS" is a combination of the swedish words Jakt (air combat), Attack (ground attack), spanning (reconnaissance)).
With the rollout of four generations of stealth fighters, the JAS-39 Gripen fighter is also constantly upgrading, such as the replacement of F414G engines and the addition of AESA radar, but with the increase in cost, such as the purchase of 36 JAS-39 Gripen NG fighters (28 single-seat versions (JAS-39 Gripen E) and 8 two-seat versions (JAS-39 Gripen F)) purchased by Brazil, the actual cost reached $5.5 billion.
