Huh, odd, because the Swedish southern regiment say on their post about it:
"
The pictured vehicle that, during the Friday and Saturday [25-26 Oct 2024], was shown off by the manufacturer and Land Warfare Centre at the Southern Scania Regiment is the one that the Netherlands is buying. The vehicle pictured does however lack additional armor.
"
Huh, that’s odd considering that’s the opposite of what Hägglunds told me…
They might have given you the answer for the Netherlands version as that was the one being demonstrated?
Arsenalen (Swedish tank museum) also got a visit from Hägglunds where they showcased the CV90 MKIIIC, and they also published a data sheet.

Gaijins bane, extending stuff.
MT-LB with some Swedish PBV package
I see the SK-60C, funny 1111 car, beautiful camo netting, funny 1111 car rev.Bill, MY FAVORITE JAS39 CAMO, and the AJS loadout.
Loadout lays have got to be one of my favorite things ever.

My favourite parts:
Makes it SUPER quiet considering the already quiet engine
I wonder if it has the autonomous tracking or not.
Video with timestamp (interesting watch though, reccomend the whole video)

After weeks of searching around I proudly present a towing hook on an UndE 23!
An UndE 23 towing an EldE 23 launcher should be possible to add as a Pantsir equivalent SPAA for Sweden. 20 km range missiles and even a Giraffe AMB radar rather than the older PS-90 ones, giving it a PESA radar which scans at a distance of up to 100 km at a 70 degree angle.
I’ll try to write up a suggestion on it over the weekend.

Yeah gaijin seems very unlikely to add more towed vehicles considering they still haven’t fixed the trailer and its bugs on the crocodile
Still 1+
But, why? EldE 23 on a truck already exists with the Leyland based BAMSE. I’m all for articulated vehicles but adding towed weapons, especially in configurations that aren’t used irl, is a whole other can of worms
It has an actual search radar, and a very good one at that. The BAMSE SRSAM only has an IRST which only looks straight to the front within the cameras FoV, which would make it basically impossible to shoot down aircraft past 10-15 km as they don’t render in thermals when far away, whilst the radar would be able to detect them regardless of distance or altitude. That huge boost in situational awareness would be an extreme improvement to the SRSAM.
BAMSE still has a targeting radar with ACLOS for targeting out to its max range

Yes, but that’s not a search radar. It’s only used for guiding the missiles. The BAMSE SRSAM would have 0 situational awareness, the only way to shoot down an aircraft is to spot it with your mk1 eyeballs. The entire point of an UndE-23 + EldE-23 conga-line is to give you situational awareness to actually find enemy aircraft rather than having to squint your eyes with your nose against the screen towards the enemy air spawn and pray to catch any cocky aircraft who don’t space climb or aproach from a different direction to catch you off-guard.

Apparently the 101R has a model in the files now, shout out.
Again do we really need it though? Id rather more stuff from 2.0-7.7 honestly over a tank with nearly unusable ammo in an uptier.

Yeah, wouldn’t it just be like the 104 but with a worse engine?
The bling would be more unique ;)
