What I'm saying is that thankfully it seems like my country despite not having been ruled by Russia has some understanding of how important this is, hopefully it'll be enough to keep support high, as far as I know we're one of the most united countries in supporting Ukraine.

Exactly how do you think Ukraine can “defeat” Russia? Russia has far more population, resources and weapons (even with today’s help from the West, which is declining). Also - how do you define “defeat”? Taking back Crimea, taking Moscow, what? Do you really think it’s feasible?

The main issue with ammo production is to ramp up the number of these expensive production lines while not being sure what the future demands are. But with Russia behaving like this, it looks like NAMMO will have to produce a lot of shells for many years, just to restock and expand the inventories of the militaries in Europe.

@@Coole-ee1vg😄😄😄 Nammo has a history which goes way back to 1896. Norway is big!! in artillery/highest techno missiles, NASAMS, JSM and NSM are developed in Norway. So its more than fish and oil
Swedish ammunition are ones with high quality, which is largely due to the unionized, highly educated, trained and experienced workers - which is much the opposite of the North Korean ammunition supplied to Russia
The peculiarity of North Korean shells is that they are quiet, they cannot be heard on approach, which is why no one has time to fall to the ground and take cover. Swedish shells still make noise like shells from WWII.
How can you hear something traveling faster than the speed of sound coming at you? And even if you can hear them it is not like you'll have a lot of time to react anyway. Maybe I'm missing something here but this "testimony" makes no sense..
Well... perhaps just the capability to activate factories such as these with short notice. You don't want to propagate the military industrial complex beyond what's needed. Once russia is out of the picture, It would seem to me that most nations in europe are either democracies or weak. Russia will be the last powerful tyranny to necessitate economic levels of defense.
@@TheZoneTakesYou how bout china taking all china sea from all neighbour countries. taking over taiwan and their industries and tech?should we just leave everything for the americans to solve?
Europe doesn't have the spare steel production or electricity generation capacity to produce the shell forgings in quantity. It would take at least 5 years and billions of dollars to expand the capacity and as soon as the ukraine war ends there'll be no need for it.
In Sweden, there was an accident in 1968 when a 155mm exploded in the chamber of a howitzer, some deaths and injuries. ALL live 155 was recalled and emptied of the explosive. Then repeated and refilled, because they suspected that it was air bubbles that was compressed as the grenade was fired and enough energy was released to ignite the grenade. The howitzer got a crack in the chamber but was restored to mint condition. And went on to be very accurate compared to others who had developed some play in bearings and such. In 1981 was the HE grenades released for peace time practice. This howitzer was the 4th gun in our battery when I did my conscripted service, and we had some officers that was in that unit when this occurred. They never talked about it, just acknowledged that they were present there when in happened. There is a peice of 8mm film that shows everything until the burst burnt the film.
Karlskoga is the same city where Bofors designed, built, exported and licensed the Bofors 40mm cannons the Allies used during WW2. These guns are still on most of the U.S and British museum ships from that era. Glad to see it's ready and able again, when some are in need. 😊
@@alexandermonro6768 main gun on Swedish IFVs, Koreans use a gun developed from it too, airburst 40x365 is a terrifying round to be up against. and the design of the gun itself is just very well thought out, it was easily upsized to a 57mm l60, then the l70 57 which the USN, USCG, RCN and many other navies still use on their backbone frigates, with programable fuses and pre-frag shells, fits perfectly into the ``kill small boats & drones`` role.
Still in use in modernised configurations. The CV90 IFV has a modernised Bofors 40mm, Koreas K21 IFV has a Korean licensed version on it too. Shells have really developed though. Airburst frag round and fire most of the frag downwards and burst over the target with absolute precision.
@Dave_Br Russia did not win WW2. The Soviet Union with their Ukrainian built T-34 tanks, along with the Allies and massive weapons support from the US won the war. The Soviet Union also started WW2 when they made a deal with Nazi Germany, to invade Finland and split Poland between them. Finland was drawn in to the war when they were invaded by the Soviet Union in 1939 with the Nazis blessing. The Finns only allied themselves with the Nazis to take back the lands Stolen by the Soviets during the Winter War, unaware of the secret protocols of The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. The current Finland was never overrun by the Soviets, they made a deal with Stalin to kick the Nazis out themselves. And then a deal with the Nazis to withdraw peacefully. Poland and Ukraine was not liberated until 1990, they where just under different occupiers.

That is strange. Swedish factories are producing as much as is physically possible, nigh and day seven days a week, and they are at the same time expanding our factories to be able to build more (and doing both at the same time is a challenge in itself).

Thanks Sweden for standing up when the US has been floundering. You truly belong on the moral high ground with France, the UK and the other European countries who understand what's at stake here in Ukraine.
Since the war started US have helped Ukraine with 47 billion $, and Europe + US combined = 107 billion $. I think US have done alot stading for almost 50% of all the help. And remember just recently in the US, House of representatives approved additional aid of 61 billion $ for Ukraine. So in total 107 billion $ only from US after that aid have been delivered.

@@Mortthemoose The Danish government has recently purchased the (gigantic) buildings of an old ammo factory that we (stupidly) sold off a long time ago. Nammo will furnish the plant and operate it in a joint venture with the Danish state. It will produce every common caliber from 5.56mm to 155mm, and is expected to be fully operational in 2026. Until then every purchase we've made, that are still in the pipeline, will be rerouted directly to Ukraine. We literally do not have any 120mm mortar shells or 155mm howitzer shells in inventory, and will continue to be "bare naked" until our own plant is operational.
@@Mortthemoose The UK government authorized an 8x increase in shell production in June 2023 - they've added shifts on the current production line, boosting production, and are in the process of adding a second line. Target for completion of the new production line (and training the staff for it) is June 2025. It's probably the most modern facility in Europe at the moment and will possibly supply a quarter of Europe's contribution to Ukraine once it's complete. Many countries don't have shell production capabilities simply because unless there's a war on, it's uneconomic to maintain the facilities, especially as smaller countries don't need much for training purposes given their limited number of tubes in their arsenals.
So much money to be made. Swedens most powerful people make billions on this shit. They have done it for many many years. They sell to whoever and the corrupt companies don't need to disclose who they sell to.
Climate Change. Fossil fuels have no future. Ukraine will need to develop alternative business and trade. Half of the problem with both Ukraine and Russia is this hanging on to fossil fuels and not progressing.
Since the end o WW II Europe relied on the US for it's defense while it underspent on defense. It also got in bed with Russia buying energy from their now enemy. Why do you blame the GOP for Europe's screw-up?.
Never thought they would fill them by hand out of "milk canisters". But if you don't need many in peace, that might be fast enough. The roboter should be able to fill up many more to increase the capacity together with the extra cooling chambers.
Yes, quite a surprise, I was thinking it would be something like a Coca-Cola bottling factory, but it’s more like bottling fine wines in a small vineyard
yeah, I was surprised seeing this hand pouring as well. Hopefully, the whole process could be made much more productive with time using modern technologies. This would make the whole Europe safer for generations to come.
Engineering is in the DNA of almost all Swedish people. Even normal household members are like carpenters, electricians, car repair etc. Most Swedish families can renovate their kitchen or installing shower cabinets by themselves. They have magic hands..
When it comes to the defense industry, people always talk about production lines like those at Ford or Audi, but it's mostly manual work. Something is ordered so rarely that it makes no sense to produce it any other way. There is no such thing as tanks on a treadmill. As long as we don't declare an emergency and mobilize, there won't be anything like that. The best example is WW2. Germany reached its highest level of arms production in 1944. This shows how sluggish arms production is.
Thanks for this report. Many of us were probably curious to see how they are produced. Right decision for it to be working 24/7, Europe needs to look after its own security.
Yeah they are doing a safe job there, but i could not help but notice how this production capabilities and speed of this plant compared to say Scarntons plant in the US.
@@CMarkem That is outdated. The new machines will not need filling by hand and put each round separately into the X-ray. They will just use the conveyor belt and produce about one grenade each minute. The metal parts come prefabricated from a different factory, but those take the longest time to produce. The newer production is also made with insensitive explosives, this means you no longer need bunkers for the end product.
I don't think this yt video change anything when it comes to Russia knowing where weapons are made. It might be a little worse for terrorist, but the did not show any of the security.
Stunning to see Europe stepping up to the challenge. The addition of robotics is surely the way ahead. The competition is not just Russia , but China and numerous other nations too.
(If you were wondering why the Swedish expert kept referring to artillery shells as "grenades" it may be habit: the Swedish word for an artillery shell is artillerigranat.)
It's good to see Mr. Martin Stang observes suitable safety protocol - I'm certain those protective glasses would save his eyesight if one of those shells they were baking happened to go off only a few feet away, but I'm a bit disappointed that he so casually strolls straight through a door with a sign that clearly states hearing protection is mandatory in the next room, if Mr. Jönsson over there drops a shell and it goes off, he could get a serious ringing in his ears, maybe even a slight case of tinitus...
By ww1 standards 6 inch shells are rather light.. its the quality of these munitions that makes the difference.. that's why they cost roughly 5.5k gbp per. As this quality allows extreme precision..

Norwegian Nammo company, which also has finnish owners, really know their stuff,👏👏 know some guys who work there. All the best to Ukraine🇺🇦👊💙💛 from me in Norway, 45 minutes from Nammo headquarters
The main issue with ammo production is to ramp up the number of these expensive production lines while not being sure what the future demands are.
But with Russia behaving like this, it looks like NAMMO will have to produce a lot of shells for many years, just to restock and expand the inventories of the militaries in Europe.

Nammo... Great name.

Swedish ammunition are ones with high quality, which is largely due to the unionized, highly educated, trained and experienced workers - which is much the opposite of the North Korean ammunition supplied to Russia
The peculiarity of North Korean shells is that they are quiet, they cannot be heard on approach, which is why no one has time to fall to the ground and take cover. Swedish shells still make noise like shells from WWII.

Well... perhaps just the capability to activate factories such as these with short notice. You don't want to propagate the military industrial complex beyond what's needed. Once russia is out of the picture, It would seem to me that most nations in europe are either democracies or weak. Russia will be the last powerful tyranny to necessitate economic levels of defense.
@@TheZoneTakesYou how bout china taking all china sea from all neighbour countries. taking over taiwan and their industries and tech?should we just leave everything for the americans to solve?
Yean. France can only make 3000 shells/month, thats like 4 hours worth in Ukraine at the moment...
Europe doesn't have the spare steel production or electricity generation capacity to produce the shell forgings in quantity. It would take at least 5 years and billions of dollars to expand the capacity and as soon as the ukraine war ends there'll be no need for it.

In Sweden, there was an accident in 1968 when a 155mm exploded in the chamber of a howitzer, some deaths and injuries. ALL live 155 was recalled and emptied of the explosive. Then repeated and refilled, because they suspected that it was air bubbles that was compressed as the grenade was fired and enough energy was released to ignite the grenade. The howitzer got a crack in the chamber but was restored to mint condition. And went on to be very accurate compared to others who had developed some play in bearings and such. In 1981 was the HE grenades released for peace time practice. This howitzer was the 4th gun in our battery when I did my conscripted service, and we had some officers that was in that unit when this occurred. They never talked about it, just acknowledged that they were present there when in happened. There is a peice of 8mm film that shows everything until the burst burnt the film.
It's called adiabatic compression and is indeed why it should be insured that there are no voids/buble in the cast explosive.
Karlskoga is the same city where Bofors designed, built, exported and licensed the Bofors 40mm cannons the Allies used during WW2. These guns are still on most of the U.S and British museum ships from that era. Glad to see it's ready and able again, when some are in need. 😊
I believe that modernised versions of the Bofors 40mm are still in service with many navies and armies.
Thanks, Sweden!
@@alexandermonro6768 main gun on Swedish IFVs, Koreans use a gun developed from it too, airburst 40x365 is a terrifying round to be up against.
and the design of the gun itself is just very well thought out, it was easily upsized to a 57mm l60, then the l70 57 which the USN, USCG, RCN and many other navies still use on their backbone frigates, with programable fuses and pre-frag shells, fits perfectly into the ``kill small boats & drones`` role.
Still in use in modernised configurations. The CV90 IFV has a modernised Bofors 40mm, Koreas K21 IFV has a Korean licensed version on it too. Shells have really developed though. Airburst frag round and fire most of the frag downwards and burst over the target with absolute precision.
It is the same company, Bofors, that has been an arms producer since the 1600's.
Only difference over the centuries is the ownership.
@Dave_Br Russia did not win WW2. The Soviet Union with their Ukrainian built T-34 tanks, along with the Allies and massive weapons support from the US won the war. The Soviet Union also started WW2 when they made a deal with Nazi Germany, to invade Finland and split Poland between them.
Finland was drawn in to the war when they were invaded by the Soviet Union in 1939 with the Nazis blessing. The Finns only allied themselves with the Nazis to take back the lands Stolen by the Soviets during the Winter War, unaware of the secret protocols of The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. The current Finland was never overrun by the Soviets, they made a deal with Stalin to kick the Nazis out themselves. And then a deal with the Nazis to withdraw peacefully.
Poland and Ukraine was not liberated until 1990, they where just under different occupiers.

in the netherlands we have a empty factory with 500 to 2000 people that have nothing to do, why arent we setting things in motion.
That is strange. Swedish factories are producing as much as is physically possible, nigh and day seven days a week, and they are at the same time expanding our factories to be able to build more (and doing both at the same time is a challenge in itself).
If you're talking about the VDL car plant, then making cars and making shells are 2 very different things and they would need extensive modifications, and will basically have to replace all their equipment.

A new US aid package to Ukraine of $61 billion just passed in Congress. I haven't heard or read of any EU country that has a new aid package matching even half that amount, have you? Thought so. Many Americans feel we shouldn't give so much aid since Russia is invading and annexing countries on the Eurasian landmass, not the North American continent. At least Europe stopped funding their enemy's military R&D and build up. Plus funding the invasion and annexation of Chechnya (twice), Georgia and now Ukraine.

ABOUT FRIKKEN TIME THESE COUNTRIES REALLY STARTED TO STEP UP
Thanks Sweden for standing up when the US has been floundering. You truly belong on the moral high ground with France, the UK and the other European countries who understand what's at stake here in Ukraine.
Since the war started US have helped Ukraine with 47 billion $, and Europe + US combined = 107 billion $. I think US have done alot stading for almost 50% of all the help.
And remember just recently in the US, House of representatives approved additional aid of 61 billion $ for Ukraine. So in total 107 billion $ only from US after that aid have been delivered.
Does floundering = paying over 50% so far compared to other nations COMBINED. Then yes...
Thanks Sweden !
Many thanks, Sweden! 🇸🇪🇺🇦
C’mon Texas and Pennsylvania! Keep the production lines moving. Team effort!

@@Mortthemoose The Danish government has recently purchased the (gigantic) buildings of an old ammo factory that we (stupidly) sold off a long time ago. Nammo will furnish the plant and operate it in a joint venture with the Danish state. It will produce every common caliber from 5.56mm to 155mm, and is expected to be fully operational in 2026. Until then every purchase we've made, that are still in the pipeline, will be rerouted directly to Ukraine. We literally do not have any 120mm mortar shells or 155mm howitzer shells in inventory, and will continue to be "bare naked" until our own plant is operational.
@@Mortthemoose The UK government authorized an 8x increase in shell production in June 2023 - they've added shifts on the current production line, boosting production, and are in the process of adding a second line. Target for completion of the new production line (and training the staff for it) is June 2025. It's probably the most modern facility in Europe at the moment and will possibly supply a quarter of Europe's contribution to Ukraine once it's complete. Many countries don't have shell production capabilities simply because unless there's a war on, it's uneconomic to maintain the facilities, especially as smaller countries don't need much for training purposes given their limited number of tubes in their arsenals.
So much money to be made. Swedens most powerful people make billions on this shit. They have done it for many many years. They sell to whoever and the corrupt companies don't need to disclose who they sell to.
Ukraine has vast oil and gas reserves, enough to fuel Europe, and russia wants it all. ruzzia whats to control all European energy

Sweden and it's Viking/Nordic neighbors are truly a gift from God.
The Aesirs would not agree...😂🤡
Thank you Sweden and Слава героям Україні ❤❤❤
The US GOP really blew it. Good for Europe and the Nordic nations to step up production.
Since the end o WW II Europe relied on the US for it's defense while it underspent on defense. It also got in bed with Russia buying energy from their now enemy. Why do you blame the GOP for Europe's screw-up?.
Never thought they would fill them by hand out of "milk canisters". But if you don't need many in peace, that might be fast enough. The roboter should be able to fill up many more to increase the capacity together with the extra cooling chambers.
Yes, quite a surprise, I was thinking it would be something like a Coca-Cola bottling factory, but it’s more like bottling fine wines in a small vineyard
Well, filling is obviosly not the bottle-neck in the production, so a more efficliant filling will probably not increse production that much.
@@MaskinJunior Indeed. He said that cooling down is the bottleneck. But that might need its time so it doesn't throw bubbles if too fast.
It's not exactly any sauce you deal with here. It's explosive and has to be gently poured. They flush the floor with water for a reason.🎆
yeah, I was surprised seeing this hand pouring as well.
Hopefully, the whole process could be made much more productive with time using modern technologies. This would make the whole Europe safer for generations to come.
Engineering is in the DNA of almost all Swedish people. Even normal household members are like carpenters, electricians, car repair etc. Most Swedish families can renovate their kitchen or installing shower cabinets by themselves. They have magic hands..
When it comes to the defense industry, people always talk about production lines like those at Ford or Audi, but it's mostly manual work. Something is ordered so rarely that it makes no sense to produce it any other way. There is no such thing as tanks on a treadmill. As long as we don't declare an emergency and mobilize, there won't be anything like that. The best example is WW2. Germany reached its highest level of arms production in 1944. This shows how sluggish arms production is.
Please world, help Ukraine!
Swedish engineering can be relied on to manufacture The factory looks great ,Well done

The bottleneck of this factory is the cooling process of the grenades in one machine. And they are setting up 16 more modern machines....
Yeah they are doing a safe job there, but i could not help but notice how this production capabilities and speed of this plant compared to say Scarntons plant in the US.
@@CMarkem That is outdated. The new machines will not need filling by hand and put each round separately into the X-ray. They will just use the conveyor belt and produce about one grenade each minute. The metal parts come prefabricated from a different factory, but those take the longest time to produce. The newer production is also made with insensitive explosives, this means you no longer need bunkers for the end product.
The scarntorn is a big factory on the surface and do everything the and nemo factory is only do the last part in manufacturing.
Soldiers hold lines but artillary, missiles, and bombs are king of duels.

It's good to see Mr. Martin Stang observes suitable safety protocol - I'm certain those protective glasses would save his eyesight if one of those shells they were baking happened to go off only a few feet away, but I'm a bit disappointed that he so casually strolls straight through a door with a sign that clearly states hearing protection is mandatory in the next room, if Mr. Jönsson over there drops a shell and it goes off, he could get a serious ringing in his ears, maybe even a slight case of tinitus...
