  1. There was a few more in the beginning,the hinges on the rear door needed reinforcing and there was not enough spare parts and consumable parts like oil filters, fuel filters, air filters and CBRN ventilation filters included in the first delivery. All those flaws were corrected over time in the first year after initial delivery.

  2. Riding 75km/h in that or it's Bv206 or Bv202 predecessors is not something I'd want to do on a hard surface, ever. The vibrations is insane.

  3. The thing is that the Bandkanon was loaded by an oversized stripper clip and single piece cased ammo with 25km max range. It was a gun artillery designed for the same role as the bm-13 Katushya. The Archer is the love child between the Bandkanon1 and the Haubits 77B😊

  4. ​ @acajutla  the ladies are litterally almost 70 years old, they need as much mechanics love as a '59 Chevy vintage car to keep operating at required performance. Also remember that every single one of the Pbv 302s has been driven by at least ten generations of 18-20yo Swedish conscipt drivers with barely any civilian driving experience prior to conscript service as the legal drivers licence age in Sweden has been 18 since the 1940s, and that's before the Pbv 302 got phased out of Swedish service in the first place!

  5. ​​ @steveng7702  manually loaded with mechanical assistance but two tubes in a protected limited traverse turret with two loaders. It's a budget alternative to the Finnish AMOS and NEMO much more automated turret systems with 360 traverse and -3°<90° elevation. Yes, the AMOS and NEMO mortars are direct fire capable in self defense.

  6. Apples to oranges. Polish wheeled IFVs and APCs are great in their own roles. That is not in competition with the CV90.

  7. ​ @katarsett9384  if the Archer was delivered along with the Swedish command and control system architecture, the operators of the archer recive fire missions directly into the ballistics calculator, and the crew can even automate the execution of firemissions by category. Those functions were present in Swedish ballistics calculators and radio systems for both howitzers and mortar units since the early 1990ies, though the manually and semi-automatically loaded pieces preceeding the Archer couldn't automate the actual firing step. The Archer thereby reducing response times to shells on target by several minutes and pull out times by even more.

  8. The Finnish designed 120mm mortar adopted in Sweden as mortar m/41 is still in service with the Swedish home guard volounteer defense militia...

  9. Comparing the M2 to a CV90 is like comparing a cow to a logging horse... they are not the same

  10. ​ @Станислав-с6п8я  the Archer chassi originated as a civilian dumper mining/logging truck platform, it can even handle some terrain tracked vehicles can't.

  11. The PzH2000 was the main competitor to the Archer in Swedish artillery trials for replacing the Bofors Haubits77 systems.

  12. ​​ @gabehorn1001  BAE Hägglunds, formerly Hägglunds & sons. BAE basically just bought most of the shares and slapped their label on it to skim some profit off the top but left the people that made up the company to keep doing their thing.
