    Swedish K1 Corvette

    Discussion about German corvettes seems to have been popular lately so I'm sharing this Swedish project which I found in Jane's 1972-73. The design was to be a flotilla leader for MTBs or FACs as well as escorts for the remaining destroyer fleet that was then still active. Two were to be built...

    Södermanland-class submarine upgrade program (2022)

    https://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2022/09/saab-receives-orders-from-sweden-for-submarine-upgrades/ HSwMS Östergötland isn't mentioned in the article, but presumably it will receive the same upgrade as HSwMS Södermanland in due course.

    SAAB Naval Projects

    So, a few years back SAAB posted a bunch of pictures of a series of small craft they'd designed, possibly just to show off their Sea Giraffe, CEROS, and EOS family (part of the 9LV combat system). There were three ships in total: The "FlexPatrol 98", a 98 meter patrol craft depicted with a 57...

    Swedish missile ship project of 1947

    Here you have drawings of 'Eskaderledare' (or Flotilla Leader) project made in Sweden in 1947 that may be founde elsewhere on the Internet (I believe they are genuine). The drawings seemquite self-explanatory. The ship's main battery was four twin 'LT' ('Lufttorped' or Air Torpedo) launchers...

    Rb 08 anti-ship missile

    This rather obscure Sweden weapon system, actually, quite interesting: It is the first Western shipborne anti-ship missile ever commissioned, and the only one Western SSM close to Soviet cotemporary analogues (like P-15 "Termit"). Interesting to note, that it seems to be essentially an...

    Swedish Hangarkryssare of 1946

    At http://imgur.com/a/Qjex8 you may find original drawings of a Swedish aircraft carrier design of 1946 - called in the Swedish "hangarkryssare" (I feel 'cruiser with a hangar'). The aircraft are the Sea Vampires. Piotr

    Saab 401 Hovercraft

    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/)

    'Tracked' Mini Submarines in Swedish waters - 1980's

    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...

    Need help identifying this project ship.

    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...

    Swedish Ub-2000 and Viking projects

    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...
