We’re launching a series of devblogs about Sweden’s ground vehicles, which will be entering closed testing in the nearest future. So, let’s kick things off with the Strv m/31 reserve tank.

In the game, the Strv m/31 will be the reserve tank in the Swedish armoured vehicle research branch. This truly is a tank built for the “sandbox”, which clearly surpasses many other reserves in its defences while still possessing comparatively high speed and firepower. The tank is excellently armoured at the front and sides, has a crew of four, and boasts cracking acceleration dynamics.





Coming up, we’ve got new armoured vehicles from the new game nation in War Thunder. Keep an eye on our news to be the first to learn about them!
