Band eller hjul?: Lämpligt fordon för EOD-specifika behov i Afghanistan.

Track or wheel? : The optimal vehicle for a Swedish EOD-squad in northern Afghanistan. (English)
Abstract [en]

The background to this paper is the events that have taken place in the Swedish area of responsibility in Afghanistan where Swedish troops have been ambushed by the insurgents. Although the troops primarily where riding in Toyota Land Cruisers they had no casualties. I think that the Swedish force needs other vehicles that can be armed and are armoured.

When I compared three different types of armoured vehicles, I found that PTGB 6 is the vehicle of choice, according to the special needs that a Swedish EOD-squad, their task and their equipment have.
