A fun little motor-driven model (2 AA).
As you may know this thing used to be one of the two MBTs of Sweden, the other being the Centurion. I had an auto loaded Royal Ordnance 105 mm L/62, a long barrel compared to many other tanks of its day so it packed some punch.
There is of course an eternal discussion regarding if it was an MBT at all or some form of tank destroyer. I believe the Swedish army called it tank because it was used as one in terms of doctrine.
