Abstract [en]

This article examines Sweden’s adaptation of its national military logistics to align with NATO standards following its accession to the Alliance. Focusing on interoperability, strategic alignment, and logistical resilience, the study draws on expert interviews and a targeted literature review to evaluate Sweden’s capability transformation. The findings reveal key challenges in integrating national systems within NATO’s collective framework, including infrastructure limitations, and highlight the critical role of command systems, standardization, a unified taxonomy, joint exercises, and Host Nation Support in enabling seamless logistical coordination. Sweden’s experience offers valuable insights into broader discussions on alliance integration, military mobility, and defense planning within the Nordic region.
