    Having served with the Swedish Navy for a year, this is my points from this video: 1. Air defense was intended from the start but was cut due to costs. 2. The helicopter-deck with the helicopter on defeats the whole purpose of the ship, being stealth. Only when the chopper is gone and the transmitter is removed, the ship is stealth. 3. The stealth-capabilities are far from 100% altho much better then most conventional ships. More modern radar will have easier time picking up the signature. 4. Reloading the ship missiles requires the ship to enter a dock, and the process itself is very cumbersome as the missile launchers are integrated into the structure itself. 5. The cost for this type of ship is very high, one could debate whether or not it would be better to upgrade several of the existing older models instead of constructing new ones. For Sweden, i would argue quantity is more important. 6. 3:00 The bridge is truly amazing with a 360 degree angle of view, something which lacked on the older models (usually they had about 270 degree view angle) 7. 3:51 The CIC was highly classified while i was serving. It was strictly forbidden to take photos and visiting relatives were not allowed inside. And i served on a warship constructed in 1985 (HMS Stockholm). With that in mind i find it boggling that everyone on YouTube gets a first hand sightseeing of the technology used aboard the most modern ship in the Swedish Navy. 8. 5:50 The kitchen is the most important place on the whole ship.

    Sweden has a key role in keeping the world free as we know it. Greetings from Finland.

    Btw you see all that technology, it actually works unlike that on russian ships.

    存在は前々から知っていたけど、このSFっぽい主砲展開のギミックは初めて見た。中々興味深い。
  • @janinsweden8559
    Remember that this class is more than 20 years old. First ship was produced in year 2000. The new ships that are designed now will be named "Luleå-class"

    Sweden is installing CAMM(Sea cepter) on the Visby, starting in 2025. 9 cells carrying 4 missiles each so 36 SAMs per ship, range is 25 km

    NATOに入る前は「自国は自力で守る」を掲げていただけに、挑戦的な開発もやってのけるその姿勢は素晴らしい。

    I was expecting a catapult with surströmming
  • Many superpowers but their faith in large frigates and cruisers and massive submarines and I understand it. They are meant for warfare in large oceans. But scandinavia and Finland's coasts are riddled with small islands and relatively shallow waters. That makes use of such large vessels negligible. Whereas these kind of corvets can easily overwhelm them when closing in.

    You can see Sweden is a Sea Nation and thats a Bigpoint for the Nato.I think Sweden is on of the Best Marines worldwide!

    You’d better not mess with these units in coastal waters… Ivan
