I'll start off with the [Swedish language] video below (h/t Damian90 over at MilitaryPhotos.net): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiWCpIJ5dBw&feature=player_embedded

In "Der Flieger" January 1962, a drawing of the then still only planned Swedish Saab 401 hovercraft is shown, which shows several differences to the later vehicle, realised in 1963 (photo from http://www.saabhistory.com/2007/02/01/the-saab-401-hovercraft/)

Hello all! I'm intrested in SAAB's 37 Viggen avionics systems, the Ericsson PS-46/A radar, detection ranges and such... Some technical details could be found https://ericssonhistory.com/Global/Ericsson review/Ericsson Review. 1983. V.60/Ericsson_Review_Vol_60_1983_2.pdf Tanks...

I did a search and didn't see any dedicated thread to Swedish aircraft projects.. maybe they don't exist.. but wanted to create this thread to learn more about it if any projects exist! :)

Hello I wish to know more about this elusive Swedish tank. The few articles I could find about it is regarded to the L-100 tank with 20mm AT gun. Do you guys know more about this vehicle? A drawing or photo maybe? Does even the Swedish built the L-101?

In the Eighties there was an infamous spate of submarine incidents in Swedish waters, apparently involving mini submarines penetrating close to shore (and even inside harbour areas). From the reports at least some of these would appear to have been fitted with Caterpillar/Tank style Tracks...

Looking for information about the Swedish SAAB L23 J23 "Swedish Mustang" I came upon this picture of a purported 1939 AFF P7 scout. Does anyone else have better information about this fascinating looking aircraft? Thanks

I’m looking for any copies of a picture of a self propelled RBS 70 turret developed in Sweden in the 1980s. It was marketed widely but with no takes and I can’t find any pictures of it around the place now. This was a fully armoured turret with all the RBS 70 guidance equipment inside and a...

I just saw this and may be making a model (and adding CFTs) of it ...

Despite having been cancelled nearly 5 years ago, a .pdf brochure is still online at the Kockums site: http://www.kockums.se/pdf/viking.pdf http://www.kockums.se/submarines/viking.html

The IKL/HDW T.2000 was rated the highest on the initial tender submission but it would be wrong to say it was more developed than the winning Kockums T.471. For example the T.2000 would have needed more modification to carry the US technology Rockwell combat system than the T.471. The T.471 also...

The E/S Orcelle, Wallenius Wilhelmsen's vision of a zero emission 10,000 vehicle RO/RO ship for the year 2025. http://www.ens-newswire.com/ens/apr2005/2005-04-06-03.asp

This image of this ship was borrowed from a site dealing in 1/1250 ships. I am interested in a three view of this ship. It is no doubt some kind of Pocket or Panzer ship project. Perhaps by Zenker. Any help in obtaining a three view or direction to a book in English or German which elaborates...

Hi, http://www.flightglobal.com/FlightPDFArchive/1935/1935%20-%200156.pdf

What information is out there concerning the buster - hypervolocity AT missile that was being considered by saab a few years back? Only illustration I have is attached -

Before the 'viking' submarine design matured, Sweden was investigating a flatfish design as a configuration for their future submarine requirement. I have little information about the concept or why there may be advantages for a flatfish design (other than operating in shallow waters) I attach...
