Swedish Armed Forces | Operational Quantities of Equipment 2024 | How strong is Sweden’s defence?

#army #military #sweden In this review of Sweden’s armed forces, the Swedish Armed Forces, we look at the quantities of both manpower and equipment. We also look at the operational quantities of equipment, because it is often less than the actual listed amounts. Please bear in mind that this list is not exhaustive as armies often do not disclose all of their gear. The Swedish Armed Forces (Swedish: Försvarsmakten) are the armed forces of the Kingdom of Sweden, tasked with the defence of the country as well as with promoting Sweden’s wider interests, supporting international peacekeeping, and providing humanitarian aid. It consists of four service branches: the Swedish Army, the Swedish Air Force and the Swedish Navy, as well as a military reserve force, the Home Guard. Since 1994, all Swedish military branches are organised within a single unified government agency, the Swedish Armed Forces Headquarters, which is headed by the Supreme Commander, even though the individual services maintain their distinct identities. As individual soldier loadouts are often varied, we’ve not included small arms, mines, uniforms etc. If you want to support the channel, you can buy me a coffe here: Any help is greatly appreciated.
