  • Some would say that it’s the best infantry fighting vehicle ever made, and while others would disagree, we are on a mission to find out how the Swedish CV90 or Stridsfordon-90 performs on the Ukrainian battlefield from the crew.

    I am amazed by the dimensions of Swedish technology. Isn’t there anything that this country produces? They seem to produce everything. They have even their own fighter jets and submarines. From furniture to heavy industrial machines. Even their meatballs are world-wide famous…Respect for Sweden!

    As a swede it makes me proud that we have been able to produce and provide such a potent weapon to the ukrainians that protects the life of the humans operating it. At the same time, the war makes me immensely sad because there are two brothers fighting and killing each other for no good reason. It is like Sweden would invade Finland, claiming it has always been a part of Sweden. That is of course unthinkable (though we would get one hell of a hockey team).

    The biggest problem with the CV90 is that there aren’t enough of them available. Several countries have ordered large numbers of new vehicles, those deliveries will take years.

      And that's only on the 40mm variant used only by Sweden and Ukraine.
      The 40mm main gun was chosen for the CV90 because Sweden had more surplus 40mm/L60 Bofors AA guns and ammo in cold war mobilisation storage when the CV90 was first designed than our scrap metal industry could process, and our ammo industry could easily develop a 40mm APDS round with enough penetration to skip a Bradley or BMP style anti tank missile launcher completely.
      The regular export versions of the CV90 has 30mm or 35mm belt fed chainguns, and the latest also carries either a SpikeLR or Acheron ATGM launcher😊

    Ukrainians, turning a troop carrier into a self propelled gun. Sure, not as large shells as proper artillery, but against small concentrations of dismounted infantry it should work nicely.
    The fact the gun is accurate enough in that configuration however, is probably something to be proud of as a Swede.

      The Ajax is an advanced combat reconnaissance vehicle, the CV-90 primarily designed as an infantry fighting vehicle, though it can be upgraded to a similar role there are potential penalties due to the increased weight, etc. that would entail, though I still think we'd have been better off adopting the CV-90, the Warrior is still very capable in the IFV role as well.

    This is off subject for this video but it’s on my mind. Has anyone looked into the use of barrage balloons like they used in WW2? Granted high end missiles & aircraft would likely easily avoid such balloons but it occurs to me that it could make drone attacks especially on civilian targets more difficult & possibly force drones into a defensive kill zone.
