I love driving a Volvo S60 from 2008. Although the engine gets punished, once the oil is warm, there are no major problems. One thing I wanted to change was the suspension. The original one is durable but moving to much. Now there is a KW V2 inside. After changing the suspension the car really wants to rush through corners. The car has now 186k km. Hoping for many more. Since 40k km it drives with LPG.

for a combat ship, it doesn't have much weaponry... so if you call that coffeemaker state of the art equipment and feel envy, man oh man, I wonder if you ever served on a real warship, any combat vessel has those weapons, whatever it's job, it lacks firepower and so is nothing to be jealous for stealth on ships is overrated, there is a reason the US abandoned the idea after 3 proto types, still Zumwalt has it's uses as a platform to test new tech, eventually they'll be putting it full of missile tubes, even long range hypersonic ones, and that's a failed project ! but is still better and has more potential then this toy

[@cubismo85]

Having served with the Swedish Navy for a year, this is my points from this video: 1. Air defense was intended from the start but was cut due to costs. 2. The helicopter-deck with the helicopter on defeats the whole purpose of the ship, being stealth. Only when the chopper is gone and the transmitter is removed, the ship is stealth. 3. The stealth-capabilities are far from 100% altho much better then most conventional ships. More modern radar will have easier time picking up the signature. 4. Reloading the ship missiles requires the ship to enter a dock, and the process itself is very cumbersome as the missile launchers are integrated into the structure itself. 5. The cost for this type of ship is very high, one could debate whether or not it would be better to upgrade several of the existing older models instead of constructing new ones. For Sweden, i would argue quantity is more important. 6. 3:00 The bridge is truly amazing with a 360 degree angle of view, something which lacked on the older models (usually they had about 270 degree view angle) 7. 3:51 The CIC was highly classified while i was serving. It was strictly forbidden to take photos and visiting relatives were not allowed inside. And i served on a warship constructed in 1985 (HMS Stockholm). With that in mind i find it boggling that everyone on KZbin gets a first hand sightseeing of the technology used aboard the most modern ship in the Swedish Navy. 8. 5:50 The kitchen is the most important place on the whole ship.

[@znail4675]

2. Yes, that is why they don't have a helicopter as standard, but it's more so that one can land there if needed. The deck is not really designed for holding a helicopter permanently either and when one was sent abroad with a helicopter along it had to be modified to make the helicopter more safe.

[@HealTheWorldasap]

It's pretty insane they cut the air defense due to cost! Debatably air defense is even more important than the anti-ship missles if they still have torpedos... I mean not even a CIWS?!? 🤯

[@johan.edlund]

@@HealTheWorldasapThe 57 mm gun is quite good at air defence, it is a development of the 40 mm Bofors anti-aircraft gun used during WW2. Also, combining stealth and air defence is a challenge since you can detect a ship sending out radar signals with passive sensors at a much greater distance than you can detect another ship with radar. From a cost perspective they were not that bad, just a little more expansive than the finnish Hamina class missile boats.

[@mukkaar]

Point 2 doesn't matter. You would not have helicopter on this vessel when operating normally. I mean with any vessel of this size, helicopters are on there just when it's needed.

Its not a gimmick its to reduce radar signature when not deployed

@@KalleKofot true, I saw several japanese comments using the word gimmick. So it probably means something else

Swedes, we 🙏, have a extremely high competence in making awesome weapons.

[@hunterws]

Showed us most of the ship and how it's organized skillfully .... but am still wondering why the trail of steam out of the back end? Would be easy to mask that, so makes me wonder if it's part of it's stealth camouflage?

[@stanislavmarinov]

Maybe the reason for that are the exhaust pipes of the gas turbines (the propulsion system consists of 2 diesel engines and 4 gas turbines). And if the exhaust pipes are underwater, to decrease the IR signature, the hot gases heat the water and create a small steam trail. But that's an assumption, of course.

[@MrSchwabentier]

it is intentional. They dissipate the exhaust gases into the wake of the ship. That creates this "cloud" but it massively reduces the heat-signature of the ship making it stealthier in terms of IR-tracking

[@johan.edlund]

@MrSchwabentier Not only that, but they also inject seawater into the exhaust system to cool the exhaust. The divinyl core carbon fibre sandvich construction also help reducing the heat signature, and make the vessel hull non-magnetic.

Normaly, when you record video inside any ship's CIC, everything is blurry..

[@mho...]

because most of the time, they film ships on oceans/mission & dont want anyone to know where thwy really are:...... these ships are ALWAYS in&around the coasts, soooo no need to hide their current location, really!

[@grahammonk8013]

Surprised there aren't any depth charges. I know that they will have dedicated sub hunters, but I would have thought adding some would have useful.

[@silkdawn7641]

It is indeed so. Sweden and US had a cooperation back in the 90s. Which resulted eventually in the Visby Class Corvette, but US later on decided to follow thru aswell and thats why the Zumwalt class exists.

7:19 Is that the Royal Dutch Navy amphibious transport ship L800 ZrMs. Rotterdam LPD?

[@ph11p3540]

Sneaky little ship. Good ambush predator that lurks among the flotsam or shoreline clutter. Anyhow, radar algorithms will have their hands full separating a recreational craft or sea buoy from a combat ship.

[@wbwam7710]

I was under the impression that the failed USS Zumwalt attempted to do the same. What does this ship do differently from the Zumwalt to avoid the issues it ran into (cost, underwhelming performance, difficult upkeep)?

This is the end of Russian naval power in the Baltic Sea.

[@silkdawn7641]

Always was, but people dont normally talk about it before joining NATO, now we can talk about it.

[@TheLifeOfKane]

You mean NATO Lake?

[@Nedroj]

Indeed

[@simulacrae]

Russia never had naval power in the Baltic, Sweden has designed their whole military doctrine around a Russian assault over land, sea and air. What made Russia a serious threat is their amount of equipment, they just have so much stuff, like we see in Ukraine today, they lose hundreds of tanks, but they have another thousand

[@Nedroj]
