Stridsvagn m/37 was a Swedish-built version of the Czechoslovak ČKD AH-IV tankette.
After successful trials in winter, on rough terrain, at home, Sweden ordered 48 Strv M/37 (the local designation) in 1937, to be built locally, at the Oskarshamn Factory. Main differences included a more powerful Volvo FC-CKD, developing 85 bhp, and thicker armor, up to 15 mm (0.59 in), cast by Avesta. The hull was much taller and larger (3.4×1.85×1.96 m/11.15×6.06×6.43 ft) and the total weight rose to 4.68 tons (5.16 short tons). The driver fixed machine-gun was eliminated, and the turret model was replaced by a twin Swedish Ksp m/36 Strv (fed with 3960 rounds). The turret itself was raised by an additional observation cupola. Max speed was now 60 km/h (37 mph) and range 200 km (124 mi). These were one of the fastest and most agile tanks in the world when finally put in service in 1938-1939. They were still in service in 1953.
The file contains the unit and pcx files. Model is not my own creation. Wyrmshadow helped with the animation files. I merely put the pieces together and cleaned up the model for CivIII and added some what if pieces. A big thanks to everyone that helped out!
