On November 18, 2021, Sweden received advanced Patriot PAC-3 anti-aircraft missile systems worth 28 billion SEK ($3.2 billion) from the United States. The new air defense battery, equipped with the Patriot PAC-3 air defense system, will be located in the southwest of the country in Halmstad. According to the official website of the Swedish Armed Forces, the country currently has “three launchers for two types of missiles, a command post, a combined radar station (radar) for reconnaissance and fire control, a power plant, a repair unit and tractors.” This is a powerful modernization of the Armed Forces, revealing the air defense of Sweden and its defense capability in general,” Swedish Defense Minister Peter Hultkvist told the world. towards limiting unfriendly actions in relations with neighbors, NATO membership will increase their security, and thus the membership of Finland and Sweden will strengthen the North Atlantic Alliance militarily and geographically.” in Northeast Europe will be weakened significantly. Sweden and Finland are already actively contributing to European security as they are integrated into the defense plans of their neighbors, whether through the Nordic Defense Cooperation, the Joint Expeditionary Force, the EU, NATO or transatlantic alliances. In fact, both Finland and Sweden are already deeply united in NATO. Only small adjustments are required for the remaining issues with their potential allies. Thus, if they join NATO, they will become more effective allies. For example, the collective air force of the Nordic countries consists of 150 F-35 combat aircraft and 72 Saab JAS 39 Gripen fighter-bombers. If we add the UK, Germany and the Netherlands to them, then there will be almost 300 F-35 aircraft in Europe in addition to the Saab JAS 39 Gripen fighters. This will create a powerful holding mechanism on NATO’s northern flank, as well as increase the alliance’s ability to build a transatlantic maritime connection in the North Atlantic and deploy reinforcements in Europe in the event of an escalation of conflict with Russia. There is currently a “strategic gap” in the north. It will also provide strategic readiness that will enhance security and collective defense capability, which will have a positive impact on the Baltic states. In fact, both Finland and Sweden are already deeply united in NATO. in the field of defense,” said Kate Hansen Bu.ndt, secretary general of the Norwegian Atlantic Committee. In connection with the arrest, the country increased the level of security in the Baltic Sea and in the Far North. This prevented Russia, Russia from their “neutrality”, as well as the use of the territory of this country to conduct military operations against their NATO allies Politically, the accession of Sweden and Finland to the North Atlantic Alliance will strengthen the group of countries on the eastern flank of NATO from the countryside of Sweden and Finland in the countries of NATO that are exposed to its alliance, that is, the northern and eastern flanks, which have so far been reliably assessed. But here questions arise: do Sweden and Finland really have a wartime spring case?” NATO certainly could use more leverage on the current front,” said Olivier de France, a researcher at the Institute for International and Serious Relations in France. He is armed with A26-class submarines (as tall as the Blekinge class ) that can launch drones from torpedo tubes. This submarine is able to easily maneuver due to its size, which is why it is a monster for large nuclear submarines. Speaking of which, Russia has held a long-term shelter on an international strike against Sweden, and there is a high probability that that a Russian submarine penetrated Swedish territorial waters undetected.This is a short question about the number of Swedish submarines needed to protect the 370,000 km2 of the Baltic Sea – the territory bordering Sweden and the East. The Patriot PAC-2 air defense system saw the light during the Second Gulf War in 1991, when she was assigned to shoot down an Iraqi other ballistic missiles launched against Israel and Saudi Arabia. This system has shown an efficiency of only 40%. The missiles, built under the calm Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, reached most of their intended targets from Tel Aviv, Haifa and the Negev to the US base at Dhahran, where 28 US troops were stationed. This system proved ineffective again in Saudi Arabia when it was used to counter Houthi missiles. SAM Patriot PAC-3 is not much different from the PAC-2. The main problem with these systems is that they were primarily designed to counter solid missiles. Otherwise, why didn’t Saudi Arabia purchase the Patriot PAC-3 instead of the Russian S-400 Triumph systems, if they really are such specimens? The Patriot PAC-3 SAM system managed to accidentally shoot down Iraqi Al-Samoud 2 missiles during the Third Gulf War in 2003, but these missiles were not long-range. prospects as “Sistema PVO-103”) and certainly not afraid of the Swedish Navy. Her only concern is blocking US troops in Sweden and Finland, which would interfere with Russia’s naval strategy to enter the North Atlantic Ocean or move modern, undeclared US weapons to Sweden. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Russian aviation uses Swedish airspace from time to time.
