What do you think about today's episode? Destroyer HSwMS Småland is one of the few ships in our game to have survived until the present day. Småland is available in the Tech Tree for 2,000,000 Free XP. Test her strengths in action!:)
One of the few? Don’t you have Belfast, Iowa, Alabama, North Carolina, Salem, Kidd, Massachusetts, Missouri, Gremyashchiy, Kutuzov, Błyskawica, and some others?
I am convinced that when subs are introduced, the anti sub rockets will be added to the Swedish subs. After that’s balanced, anti ship missiles will be added but can only target capital ships and lock on when the ship is spotted to launch. Can’t track behind islands.
I served on Småland back in 1978 for 9 months. It was likely the last time she was commissioned. A very nice memory now. Småland was really powerful with the 58000 hp. Some times 'full steam ahead' >35 knots.
Småland was a quite big ship to swedish conditions. If i remember right 125 m long, 12.5 meter width. The crew was appr 250 men ( no women at that time). The purpose was to educate seamen and officers to be prepared for a potential war situation. My specialisation was artillery. i can most likely still disassemble/ assemble the Bofors 40/48 anti aircraft gun in cpl darkness 😉The cold war was very present. Very often we came very close to Sovjet union warships.

This ship is in my city ”Göteborg” and its a part of a small boat museum which you can visit, and you can board the actual destroyer yourself. It might seem like a cool ship and all, but this boat is unfortunatley not as poupular as it should be. Its a beautiful piece of art, in a great watersize city, but not many people like that the boat is there, there’s been some complains. Hope you found this info good! :)
it's everything, but not a fuckin' piece of art pal, what are you smoking? It's a warship... Created to wage war, burn , blow up, scortch or melt its enemies....
Those two M50 Bofors 120mm DIT were serious candidates for the 'new' Zeven provicien class (at the turn of the century!). 2:14 Know that gun inside and out. They were 'automatic' but also almost purely mechanical. No electronic switches or safety features. Just a mechanical switch that, when all 5 checks were positive, would allow the gun to fire (think of it as a cylindrical lock, when all pins are pushed to the correct position the lock would open).
Im amazed of my blindness... I missed a tank next to my car on a transport ... I missed the Belfast my first time in London... I missed Smoland too... Crazy...
@@huskythedinosaur1592 well most DDs are very very fragile and a single mistake can make your HP disappear but Neu can heal A LOT! She has over 40k potential HP recovery so she takes damage like no other DD
My dad worked at Alfa-Laval, who built and serviced her steam turbines. He was present for a "crash test", in which you go from full speed (in excess of 40 knots) to full reverse (to stop as quickly as possible). She did this in no more than half a boat length, during which time she dipped the whole front of her underneath the water. Of course, the turbine had to be fully disassembled afterwards in order to check that it was undamaged. But it's quite impressive to stop so fast.
”Välkommen till Göteborg” translates to “welcome aboard destroyer Småland”. He just said “Welcome to Gothenburg! We are aboard the destroyer Småland”. Sorry for my tiny rant
We also participated as volunteers, in air above Italy, sea around Great Britain, Finnish borders and forest and Norwegian Fjords both on land and air.
Me and my dad visited that ship every other weekend when I was a kid. Ah, I still remember the smell of the ship. The submarine next to it is also a classic...

Thanks for doing this. I suggested to World of warships Legends to build this and they laughed at me. So again, thanks for not beeing ass holes and showing good gaming spirit.
The one explanation i truly miss in this one is the purpose of the 6 rails mounted on each of the main gun turrets. They seem to be (somewhat obvious) for a missle system but which and to what target type would have been nice to know as well.
@9:46 As this appears in engine, is she getting this at a later date since she was launched with ship to ship missiles (the weight is the reason that is a triple tube unlike her sister that had a quint tube there)?
I would guess "Hästens" or some other company that makes more expensive beds, unless it was custom made. Also back in the 50's Ikea wasen't a big company really.
