An unofficial tour of Arsenalen, the Swedish Tank Museum

I had a few minutes to sneak around the museum with my mobile 'phone camera. Just to show you what's there if you are debating taking the time to visit.

[@hansheden]

The "Battle Bus" at 3:10 is a mobile commandcenter for the Primeminister during WWII. Only one was built.

[@Braeden123698745]

"with my mobile 'phone camera." Do you see that. Do you see how this man out grammars us all? Do you see this man's attention to detail and knowledge of the past. Do you see the apostrophe on the word "'phone" he does not neglect the fact that it used to be called a "telephone." Amazing.

[@TheChieftainsHatch]

You are, I believe, the first person in thirty-some years to comment upon this.

[@attilarischt2851]

... You should put an aphosthrophe there? I actually didn't know that. Thank you for pointing it out good sir!

[@Braeden123698745]

Well he's a man who looks at old tanks all day. I think he can say 'phone if he likes

[@jesuizanmich]

You have two clauses in the penultimate sentence. You probably meant: Do you see the apostrophe on the word "'phone"? He does not neglect the fact that it used to be called a "telephone". Amazing. Having two clauses in a sentence without any punctuation separating them is usually incorrect syntax. You can also have a compound clause structure with a coordinating conjunction between the independent clauses. For the Brits wondering, the full stop inside quotation marks is actually correct if you are American. It seems to have originated from typesetting rules about two centuries ago. Full stops outside quotation marks leave a gap between sentences, which allegedly looks bad. It's similar to how people today have problems placing smileys in brackets--"(hi :))" looks wrong, but "(hi :)" is not balanced correctly. British people would probably put the full stop outside, given the original quotation does not have a full stop after "phone".

[@TheChieftainsHatch]

Oddly, I learned in Ireland (so generally British rules) to put the full stop within the question marks. However, upon further thought and research, I have moved to only putting punctuation which is actually being quoted in between the marks.

[@PeterHoglund]

The "Combat Tractor" towed the soldiers after the tractor. They were riding bicycles and holding on to a rope for dear life.

[@Cohac]

My grandad did that when he did military service in the mid-40's. Appearently we kept it up until the 80's.

[@Skorn89]

Its actually a Volvo-BM 350 Boxer. Its Military designation was Hjultraktor 317V (wheeltractor)

[@meanmanturbo]

18:08 Sweden bought East German MTLB's and BMP-1's in the mid 90's to mechanize the large softskin only infantry brigades. Then in 2004 it was in divine wisdom decided to scrap all the infatry brigades and the use for those vehichles dissapeared. I did my military service in 2002-2003 as part of a RBS-56 ATGM platton and we used MTLB's (Swedish designation PBV-401).

[@herrakaarme]

Interesting. I had no idea Sweden ever used Eastern Bloc vehicles. I'd have thought they just acquired samples from somewhere for the museum.

[@ja37d-34]

@@herrakaarme it was after the Cold War when "Eastern Germany" sold of that shit pretty cheap. And since full mechanization had not been reached yet, it was a quick way to do so.

[@Nizze82]

1016 MTLB:s was bought for around 600k SEK each ($60k) . 550 was renovated and the rest was scrapped for parts. There is roumor that Gemany placed the MTLB:s on a field, the swedish army bought the field, removed the vehicles, then sold the land back to Germany.

[@ProtoFinn]

It appears that the Swedish military liked the 38 T just as much as I do..

[@ZETH_27]

I also wish "The_Chieftain could do an "Inside the Chieftain's hatch" with the Bandkanon 1. 15 rounds in 45 seconds on an artillery cannon!

[@michaelkarnerfors9545]

16:20 The RBS-70 is not laser _homing_ , it is a beam rider. The laser sweeps - left to right and then up and down - over the line-of-sight in coded pulses. The missile reads the pulses with a sensor in the back (which is why the rocket engine exhaust is on the mid body of the missile and not the rear) and this tells the missile where it is in relation to the line-of-sight to the target.

[@dennisandersson5552]

When I did my military service we had the MTLB, called Pbv401 in Swedish service after some changes. They were rather rough around edges but quite solid vehicles. I served in an ATGM (RB56 BILL) unit and we used the 401 as battle taxi..

[@thomson125]

The Centurion Mk.10 is called Stridsvagn 101, it was our forst tank with a over 10cm gun. Our Mk.3 was called Stridsvagn 81, becuase it was the first with a gun above 8cm. If I remember correctly the Greyhound was captured and used in Kongo in the earlie 60s. The MT-LB (PBV401 in Sweden) and BMP-1 (PBV501) was bought in the earlie 90s.

[@thomson125]

That is correct. And inbetween those two we have the Stridsvagn 102 aka upgunned Centurion Mk3 and 5.

[@oloflarsson1833]

And when the Strv 101 and Strv 102 was uppdated, they became Strv 101R and Strv 102R (R for "Renovated and modified), but the next time around they became the Strv 104, while the Strv 103, became the Strv 103B and later the Strv 103C, rather than Strv 103R or Strv 105. So we had a very logical system. It's just that we changed the system for every new vehicle and often several times for the same vehicle. As a further example, the first APC's were the Pbv 301, followed by the Pbv 302. (whle the 200-series was used for non armoured tracked vehcles). The next one after that was not the Pbv 303, but the Pbv 401 and Pbv 501. And for the CV90 they changed the system again to the Strf9040. Then they reverted back to the 300-series, but skiped a few numbers for the BV 308 (that is armoured, but not designated as armoured), the BV 309 and the n the BV 410.

[@Mattebubben]

Yea this Naming Scheme was adopted after ww2 so all vehicles from the 50s and on uses this. Strv for example is the 4th vehicle with a 75mm gun. The Leopard in Swedish service were the Strv 121 (2A4s leased but since returned to Germany) as they were first with 12cm guns and the Current Leo 2s are the Strv 122 (Swedish built variant and the one seen in the video) as they are the second as so on. the IKV 91 also follows this so its not just tanks (First vehicle with 90mm gun). The system might be confusing at first but its a logical naming scheme once you understand it .

[@Micsmit_45]

thomson125 that would make the Leo2 the Strv 121 right?

[@thomson125]

The Leopard in the museum is a Strv122. The 121 was the designation for 160 Leopard 2A4 that we leased from Germany.

[@JoeDurobot]

*Interesting little tour, thanks for sharing mate!*

[@foowashere]

Thanks for the tour! According to a recent post on the Swedish Tank Archives, the Sherman deal (for 50 tanks IIRC) failed due to inability to secure a comprehensive spare parts package. I guess the army didn't want to get stuck with an increasing pile of junk, but it sounds like there could be more to uncover.

[@frankkrunk]

A quick note on the Czech designs you mentioned. 3:35 Strv m/37, CKD AH-IV-based, made in Sweden under license after a rather hostile takeover happened in Czechoslovakia (you may have heard of this, it was widely publicized at the time). They went straight to the scrap heap in 1953. 5:16 we see a Sav m/43 (Stormartillerivagn/Assault Gun Carrier) a.k.a "the clog". The Army stopped production of the m/41, and used the last 18 of the chassis to make these. 6:16 Strv m/41 was a license-built TNH (a.k.a Pz 38t). Same backstory as the m/37. All of these (except for the ones in museums) were rebuilt into Pbv 301. which brings us to: 9:56 Pbv 301. ALL Pbv 301 came from existing m/41 tanks. So this particular 301 used to be a m/41. Same thing happened with Strv m/42, they were all reborn as Strv 74 (with lethal results for the crewmen).

[@BigSwede7403]

The "Coffin" was (IIRC) given the nickname because it slightly resembles a coffin for burial when viewed from above. Add poor armor and open topped troop space and you can see where it got it from.

[@SonsOfLorgar]

Yeah, it was a stop-gap measure before the arguably better stop gap measure of the pbv 301 until the proper APC sollution of the pbv 302 came around :) The KP-bil m/42 was in service until the late 90'ies though. Used on Gotland long after it became horribly obsolete.

[@pew-pew2224]

I don't think the armour was that poor? It survived several frontal hits from a 37 mm cannon during the fighting in Congo.

[@pew-pew2224]

I wouldn't call it a stop gap? It was developed during the WWII to get cheap spliter and small arms-protected transport to the tanks-forces. In the beginning it wasn't even armed with guns.

[@SonsOfLorgar]

pew-pew That it worked ok, doesn't change the fact that it was a stop gap for an APC, just like the pbv. 301. Had it been a halftrack, I might have agreed to it not beeing a stop gap.

[@DornishVintage]

Where they got the MT-LB from? Former East Germany, the Swedish Army bought about 800 of them at practically scrap price in 1993. Makes sense as the Bundeswehr probably wanted nothing to do with them. About 600 were upgraded to Swedish standards and got used in the usual variety of applications that APCs do. Called Pansarbandvagn (Pbv) 401, or "Armoured tracked carrier" in Swedish service. And yes, they plonked a 40mm Bofors turret on some of them, think that was for the Polish army.

[@Kennethah81]

The Rbs 70 is a very interesting surface-to-air missile. The only SAM that´s a laser beam rider if I remember correctly. The missile itself isn't in any way aware of the target until it gets within range of the proximity detonator as the laser receiver is in the rear end of the missile looking back towards the launcher and the laser emitter.

[@aritakalo8011]

Kenneth André Hansen thing is they are still developing it and the modern variants have autotracking optical sight and laser painter (within limits of course). Thus it kinda becomes locking system. Advantage is the missile is dirt cheap. Comparatively. And also kinda jamming proof as laser rider. When there is no seeker head on the missile a) you can't fool the missile and the operator is guiding the launcher optics b) it only needs dirt simple laser sensors in the back. Thus cheaper and also more room for bang since that laser sensor probably weights way less than a full optical or radar seeker. Which means for the trifty Swedes, more missiles for the lads and faster. Also not rhowing expensive seeker head away with every missile. Just reuse multiple times on launcher. Down side? The operators and launcher/guider becomes a target.

[@franz_stigler]

you saying the Swedish are famous for the 40mm bofors remind me of the fact that some of the most popular anti-aircraft weapons were Swedish or swiss (like the 20mm oerlikon) kinda funny the biggest war in human history is happening around them and they're just sitting rubbing they're hand together at all the money from licensing contracts

[@Mattebubben]

Well Sweden did not make as much as we would have. As the biggest producer of the 40mm bofors gun of ww2 was the US and they made them without a license. (They got the papers from the British who had a license and Illegally started to mass produce them). The US had already been in talks with Sweden about getting a license but In return Sweden wanted a License for Aircraft (Sweden had already ordered a number of aircraft the year before and wanted a License to build more of them in Sweden under license in exchange for the License for the Bofors 40mm) During the time of the conversations the US put an embargo on military equipment to Sweden (All European nations not a part of the allies) thus preventing the shipment of the Majority of the aircraft Sweden had already ordered (Sweden only got 62 out of the 254 aircraft they had ordered and paid for) and at that point the talks about the Bofors 40mm ended as Sweden was understandably annoyed at that point. The US still wanted and needed the gun so the Brits Copied and Smuggled a set of plans to the US and the production was started. After the production had started some type of deal was reached with Bofors but at this point the US was pretty much able to state their terms as they would just make them anyway so the price / compensation was allot lower then it should have been and Sweden never got the rest of the aircraft they had ordered.

The Bandkanon production version is based on the S tank hull !

[@tekis0]

Nice!

[@Winchester1979]

Since +TheChieftainWot stumbled a little over what to call the Mk10 tank - Cold War and later Swedish tanks are designated by their main gun caliber in centimeters, followed by a number indicating which model of tank with a given caliber it is. So Strv 101 is the first tank with a 10 cm gun (the classification for which includes the 105 mm gun), Strv 122 is the second tank with a 12 cm gun (that's the modern Leopard 2S by the way), Ikv 91 is the first infantry support track (AKA "light tank", except it's more of an assault gun) with a 9 cm gun, etc. The number is not exclusive to a given vehicle, so you can have an Strv 121 and an Ikv 121 at the same time. This only applies to cold war and later things though, and only to tanks and other direct fire vehicles. Older vehicles use a "model of [year of adoption]" system like "Stridsvagn m/42" for a tank adopted in 1942, a system which is supposedly obsolete but was resurrected in the early 1990s (for a while every new piece of kit in the Swedish army was named m/90 - the Psg 90 sniper rifle, the Ag 90 anti-materiel rifle, the m/90 uniform, the Strf 90 infantry fighting vehicle... all to show that the Army was renewing itself for the 90s).

Great stuff! Correction, the one with the monotrailer is not a 122. Swedish numbering comes from the gundiameter. A Centurion doesnt come with a 120 mm gun. It would be either a 81, 101, 102 or a 104. As the 105 was only ever built as a prototype, it couldnt be that. So a 122 is a Leopard. Why an MTLB? Purchased for mechanised units for schrapnel protection. We did buy some BMP´s aswell. I dont remember where they went. Being a LRRP in the 302 I will probably get laughed at from tanker friends who could tell you exactly what Centurion it is. I watch all your stuff. Keep it coming! Sabot up.

One of my this with the Swedish peacekeeping in Kosovo, early 2000, was in a 302. This while we had cv90 (which i later served in). I have very little love for the 302 myself and there is very little positive I heard of it that wasn't based on "it's what we got assigned to us. There is ofc the fact that vehicles such as these in low threat peacekeeping roles, in comparison to a non heavy weapon equiped civilian population that don't want to kill the peacekeepers (compare Kosovo vs Iraq circumference), is way more than capable to be the apex military authority (since there is nothing else) . That in turn, maybe/ ofc (?), goes out the window in countries things go bad (~2006 Iraq). The 302 was, to me as far as peacekeeping vehicles goes, a great such vehicle until you actually needed it. I never doubted the CV90 though. Peacekeeping in that one was a pleasurable experiment. But if anything, serving in a 302 -meanwhile- you could have had a cv90 by mkt that 10 years margin, was absolutely astonishingly silly to me. It's like getting a biplane in the year 1943 and told to guard the border it smh
