Cold War, 1967: ’Neutral’ Sweden’s atomic cannon, Western News Media misinformation?
Bandkanon-1 (Bofors Vagnkanon 155mm L/50) had a 155mm gun, which could launch both conventional and nuclear projectiles. It was in use from 1967 to 2003. Even Wikipedia denies the gun could fire nuclear projectiles, yet this June 1967 news report says the Swedes bragged that it could! Was this an early Cold War example of the news media misinformation?
