As someone said, the S-Tank is a turret on tracks, so it is a hull-less tank.

[@paulsnell534]

@Dan Gunnarsson and Golden Eagle. The S Tank is one of my favourite all time tanks and the description its a turret on tracks or a hull-less tank or the comparison to the Jagdpanzer. But I'd compare it more to a modern version of the StuG or a Hetzer

[@alm5992]

What???

[@princeofcupspoc9073]

@@@paulsnell534 A Jagdpanzer is basically the same as a StuG. Only the general usage of the vehicle is different, StuG being more infantry support and Jagdpanzer being more of an antitank role. There is NO vehicle known as a Hetzer. You mean the Jagdpanzer 38(t), so it IS a Jagdpanzer. Confusion all around.

I am impressed that Stefan described choosing a tank commander as his loader while he needed to have his head outside the tank to fight the remainder of his company. That is an inspired choice, because he'd just finished describing how much coordination the crew needed directing the driver.

[@stefankarlsson9762]

My choice to have a commander as the loader I knew he was able to be the commander of the tank and loading the gun at the same time if I needed to focus on giving orders to the rest of the company. With a good driver and a good gunner you do not need to focus that much on them. It was my choice and it worked fine.

Stefan is killing it. Someone's earlier comment of him being the Arsenalen's David Fletcher is right on the money. This is coming from an American by the way, but I've just noticed that David cashes in really hard on that "dry British" humor and straight faced delivery. Stefan does the same, delivers what I can only assume is "standard Swedish humor" or "Swedish Veteran Humor", and he's doing so in his non-native tongue to the point that I easily understand what he's getting at and finding the humor in his anecdotes and stories. He's done so well joining the YouTubing Tank Museums. He keeps it interesting, fun, and easy enough for a schmuck like myself to be able to take the vehicle he's talking about and place it in history and at locations without having to Google everything.

In the summer of 1985, at the end of my training as a forward observer in the artillery at A1 in Linköping, I attended a field training exercise at brigade (or larger perhaps? Part of a big exercise anyway) level at P10 Strängnäs, which was Tomas’ regiment. I was attached to a tank company to serve as a their “commander of company artillery” (Kompaniartillerichef in Swedish). It was a great exercise, great weather and super fun. I wonder if Tomas was there too, perhaps in the same company? The main drawback was they didn’t have tracked artillery observation vehicles at the tank company, so I had to make do with my wheeled, unarmored Tgb11. It was fun though. Supporting tank combat as an artilleryman was so different from supporting the infantry that I was previously used to. Much more aggressive and fast. Much more on the offensive

[@richardross7219]

It was very nice of you to give this lesson. My grandfather was drafted into the Swedish Army in 1916. He guarded the palace in Stockholm with a custom carbine with a 10 round magazine. Nana told of her grandmother being very afraid that the russians would invade again.Thanks. Good Luck, Rick

At least among mechanized infantry, the IKV 91 was known as "regnskyddad pvpjäs". A "pvpjäs" was a recoilless anti-tank gun mounted on an open car or on top of an APC, so let's translate the nickname to "anti-tank gun, rain protected".

And its funny, because it was his first car, and for me it was first drive as a driver :D After that, I often came to the place where my father worked and tired him to let me drive the car.

CV-90 is in my eyes a light main battle tank / troop carrier. It can be used everywhere and is the tank for the soldiers on the ground. Not super armor or gun. Just all around a grate tool for modern military. It is the tank that is perfect vs a threat that do not have battle vehicles. Light small fast and armor/troop seats making it cheap and effective. Front engine. Rear ramp into seating area for (10?) soldiers. Hydraulic suspension to work ridge lines last time I was in contact with it. Compact. Full turret. Auto loader.(?) Long service life. Most successful Swedish tank in real combat (I think) Heck it is the only tank I have had contact with my hole life. Live close to the city that built and rebuild this bad boys!

The real way to differentiate a tank from other armored vehicles is "what is it meant to do". Tanks fight other tanks head on, SPGs are fire support, IFV are close infantry support, etc. The S-tank was meant to be a primary combat vehicle against other tanks, and that makes it a tank, period.

[@target844]

@@neiloflongbeck5705 The S-tank and the Centurion that was both used at the same time was intended to be used the same way. They all use the same field manual for tank platoons. The only doctrinal difference is that the S-Tank can swim so that it can be used when you attack and water in the way. All other difference is the steps and commands when you use the weapons, manually loaded vs automated, etc. You can find in tanks.mod16.org/pdf/Pansarreglemente%20stridsvagnspluton%20%281974%29.pdf The Swedish armoured forced was primarily intended for the attack to eliminate any soviet beachhead. If you look at the test of the tank by the US vs the M60 you are on average 1.4s (If i remember correctly) slower to fire the first shell on a target but have higher hit accuracy and shorter time for the follow-up shot. So the US and British could not say that there was a clear disadvantage in not having a turret. This is all before you have moderns gun stabilization system. The armour worked find against the shell of the time but terrible again later long penetrators. So when it was designed is had some disadvantages and some advantages compared to traditional tanks. It was intended to be used the same way as a turreted tank.

[@tasman006]

@@HellbirdIV One thing I read in a book over 30 years ago about the word tank which was made up as water tank or carrier. The name tank stuck but there was another name they where going to use which was Cistern. Which is the same thing but for a smaller version of a water tank like flushing a toilet. You can imagine if the word Cistern had stuck instead of tank we would have had anti Cistern gun and or Anti Cistern Guided missiles. I here so many arguments on what is a tank and its like no that's an SPG not a tank or no that's a tank destroyer not a tank. The French label it char d'assaut which translate assault vehicle. Look at the Gulf war the Bradley IFV ended up destroying more enemy tanks than Abrams did with its TOW missiles so should it be called a tank destroyer well no its a infantry fighting vehicle. They all have a different role on the battlefield so armored vehicle maybe better but to me anything with tracks and a high calibre gun with machine guns, Cannons or missiles is a tank or just part of a family can be a tank. In modern times yes up front in the enemy face for example a modern American Abrams M1A2V4 or British Challenger 2 is a tank with a turret and that can slug it out with multiple enemy targets. No matter what a tank for me is something that can destroy the enemy protect the crew and be part of a mechanized unit and generally have tracks. A lot of countries call them different things so its a debate I see going on for a long time. See link below and look at Etymology. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank#Etymology
