Default Re: Swedish OOB Bug

The Swedish OOB post 1989 is a sort of "rough suggestion".
There are loads of guesses etc made by the OOB author regarding formations and equipment that never advanced beyond trials.


Some trivia re: fskj:

Swedish Fallskärmsjägare (Paratroopers) operate in section size* units. During the cold war they were primarily a recce asset to higher HQ (and would likely have been inserted in the Arctic North in case of a conflict with the USSR).
Although their "mission" has changed some since the end of the cold war they still have more of a Special Forces character.

*During the incident of the stranded Soviet Whiskey class sub S-363 in 1981, Fallskärmsjägare were used as the ground element guarding the sub. Bit unusual, but I guess somebody thought they were the most reliable.
