(Pvpjtgb 1111)
The Pansarvärnspjästerrängbil 1111 (Pvpjtgb 1111) was an open-top unarmoured tank hunter introduced in the Swedish Army in the 1970s to replace the Pansarvärnspjästerrängbil 9031 (Pvpjtgb 9031). It is armed with a single 9 cm Pansarvärnspjäs 1110 recoilless rifle fitted with a 7,62 mm inskjutningsvapen 5110 spotting rifle.
The vehicle was most commonly found in the infantry brigades organized in central Sweden at a quantity of two per IB77 infantry battalion and 6 per brigade anti-tank company.
When the vehicle was finally phased out in the 1990s, a small number were upgraded to carry the RBS 56 BILL ATGM under the designation Pansarvärnsrobotterrängbil B RBS 56 BILL (Pvrbtgb B RBS 56) for a short time until the mid-2000s.
The Pvpjtgb 1111 features a near-unique ability to raise and lower the main weapon system above the chassis of the vehicle during firing. It shares this ability with the Pvbv 2062, but not with its predecessor, the Pvpjtgb 9031.
The Pvpjtgb 1111 carried an unknown amount of ammunition distributed between 3 compartments; 2 dedicated ammunition compartments, 1 auxiliary compartment.
Between the driver and commander there was also a specific metal box for smoke grenades capable of holding up to 8 smoke grenades.
