The new episode of Inside the Chieftain's Hatch is dedicated to the revolutionary Swedish Strv 103 tank. In the first part, Nicholas Moran will examine the tank's exterior and talk about the savvy Swedish engineers who mounted the gun onto the tank hull, removed the gunner's position, and used fuel tanks as additional armour. Enjoy!

The propaganda is intended to cause internal turmoil in the country by making various claims, like that the country is overrun and that rape happens all the time.

It was perfectly suited for its intended role...fighting off Soviet armor in the dense forests of Scandinavia, on narrow roads. Sure, some may term it more a tank DESTROYER than a true "tank", but it's largely a matter of interpretation. Picking off invading Soviet tanks was all the Swedes needed any sort of tank for, and this one was better suited for the job than the Centurions, which the Swedish army also bought.
@selfdo
@selfdo 4 года назад
@Murat Gadjiev It's called DETERRENCE, Murat...of course, unless the Soviet Naval Infantry landed on the Swedish Baltic coast, and not necessarily having invaded Finland first (which would have otherwise given the Swedes ample warning), ferried MBTs on some sort of "Ro-Ro" ferrying craft out of Kronstadt, out the Gulf of Finland and across the Baltic enough to threaten something of value. Sure, the Naval Infantry would be using PT-76s, likely upgunned to the D5T 85mm weapon, and also landed some VVS (Airborne) and landed likewise some ASU-85 tank destroyers, but those AFVs would be easily picked off by Swedish infantry wielding "Carl Gustav" ATGMs. No matter the route that Soviet armor would have taken, the roads would have been narrow, with most if not all the surrounding terrain heavily forested and unsuitable to armored operations. So the Strv 103 could easily wipe out approaching Soviet armor as they'd be confined to these narrow roads.

The auto-loader design also facilitates bring rounds for the 105mm gun via an APC...i.e., by carrying them in the APC, and then backing up close to the back of the tank, a fair level of protection from artillery fire during reloading can be achieved. Kind of important when an empty tank is being refueled and resupplied under combat conditions.

bonga rust the crew is near impossible to take out, the fuel does a great job at defusing HEAT rounds. The; engine, fuel, heavily sloped armour, and extra interior armor surrounding the crew makes it impossible to take them out from the front. Putting the ammo away from the crew keeps them from getting killed, in fact all modern tanks do this to an extent. They all store ammo in a large, easy to hit compartment just behind the gunner/commander in the turret with just a relatively thin piece of steel to protect the entire crew if the ammo gets hit. Did you watch the video? He went through all of this

One benefit the 103 had with its long Bofors main gun was that it could open fire long before the T55, T64 and T72 could because of its range and accuracy. This is why this tank was one of the first to use a laser range finder and ballistic calculator for precision hits. The fast auto loader made it possible to hit each target twice to inflict maximum damage before changing target. It was a complex machine for its time, built for one thing, stopping a numerical superior Soviet tank force at the border.

Interesting video. The statement that the tank has to be running to operate its main gun is however false.

The huge advantage is that not only was it hidden visually, also the heat signature virually disappeared, making it extremly hard to locate.

A tank can be anything that fills the role of one. Does the lack of a turret make the Mk.IV any less of a tank? Does the lack of tracks make the Tsar tank any less of a tank? Does the lack of a cannon make the Panzer I any less of a tank?

Whether something is considered a "tank" or a "tank destroyer/SPG" is entirely a question of role, and in their doctrine the Swedes definitely classified the Strv 103 as a main battle tank. The purpose of this thing was to engage Soviet T-64s and T-72s from defensive positions, since Sweden was not then and is currently not ruled by the burning desire to spread the fear of the Carolingeans into all of Europe--it comes and goes, give them another century or two and it'll be back. Anyway, this thing as designed would be a devastating defensive fighter, since as established during the Second World War the winner of a tank engagement is usually he who shoots first--and this thing is so incredibly hard to spot that combined with its role it would be almost guaranteed to do so.

@@InchonDM Yes, we always fired the first round. And the second, third - and mostly fourth and fifth too. And all was a hit and "total destruction" against T-54 -55 -62 -64 at any distance. On T-72 and T-80 you had to wait until you saw the scared eyes of the commander, if firing at the front. The extremely elaborate gun-sight of the 103 had a "battle tub", a square U that indicated, when filled with an approaching Russian tank it was "good to shoot" and expect a kill. No need to use the laser or mess with any distance. But the purpose of the tank was not defensive. We assumed a Russian attack, sure, but the armored forces should attack the bridgeheads, being airborne or by the seaRepel them before they got too strong. As you perhaps mentions, the Swedish mentality is always to attack. We will always be fewer in numbers, and the only way to win is to chose the time and place for a battle - which you can do only when you attack.

6V53T is a V motor (DD older engines used the V to indicate that, as the same series could be L or V engines). If the Strv-103 had an L6 Series 53, it would be properly labeled a 6-53, and not a 6V53, though the V53s are not much wider than the straight 53s.

Osäker. Men det kan vara på grund av att han är en välrennomerad stridsvagnsofficer. Majors grad om jag inte missminner mig. Nån tyckte väl att han därmed gjort sig förtjänt av pansarnäven. Vet inte själv vad jag tycker om det då jag är(var) artillerist.

The huge Achilles heel of this design is that the gun cannot aim independent of the hull. If the hull is stuck in at a certain heading then so is the gun. Same thing when driving. You can’t shoot anything while driving unless it is right in your direction of travel

@martinbredberg7616
@martinbredberg7616 Год назад
Probably more or less with any tank. If the hull is stuck, you can only shoot at what is not needed to shoot at anymore. What you miss is that when this old tank was introduced, no tank could shoot and hit while moving. They all had to stop to aim. And 103 stopped, aimed, shot, and hit faster than any other tank - with its rigid gun.

Good to see the Swedes living the StuG life. That is a really sweet tank. Have to watch the next two videos, but this looks like the tank to crew. Low low profile, super steep slope, reasonable armor, crew behind the engine.

I actually got my reload time down to 3.1 seconds or something on the test server. 4500 dpm. These stats could be entirely wrong if any math lurkers are here. This is just the numbers that spring to mind. It was either 4200 or 4500 dpm though.
