Swedish Centurion in 1/35.... (1 Viewer)

Maybe, maybe not....

One does wonder if there was any external differences between the British and Swedish Mk. 3, 5 and 10....

There were significant visual differences on the Strv-104 variant vs the British variants and the earlier Marks used by the Swedish army.

A few examples:

different stowage arrangements
repositioning of smoke dischargers (also different type - I think)
different driving lights
additional armour welded on the front
modified cupola & MG arrangements

I think the engine deck was different in detail as well.

Hopefully the British and Swedish Mk. 3, 5 and 10 were similar. I think that the STRV 104 was midlife upgrade....

Heck! I didn't even know the Romans recruited Swedes!
