Abstract [en]

The new modern advancements in technology continues to impress with its superior features. However, implementing new technological systems can be problematic, and will require good planning and flexibility to utilize the technology to its full potential. Should new technology be adapted to fit into already existing tactics, or should the new technology and its characteristics and capabilities contribute to the development of tactics? The purpose of this study examines how tactics are affected by the implementation of a new technical system whitin the Swedish army. To analyze this, the author has chosen the implementation of the Armored Terrain Vehicle 360, which was intended to replace the previous, the Armored Personnel Carrier 302. The study uses a qualitative method, that is used to review theories that discuss military technique and tactics, and how they affect eachother. Indicators from the theories are identified in order to contribue to conclusions regarding the technical and tactical differences of both combat vehicles. The result of thestudy shows that the Swedish Armed Forces' implementation of the Armored All-Terrain Vehicle 360 has impacted and developed the tactics of the infantry units. Therefore, the results indicate that the units have had to develop new tactics as the characteristics of the new technology could not fully be applied and used within the existing tactics.
