Luftvärnsrobotvagn 701


Luftvärnsrobotvagn 701 is a Swedish self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicle armed with the locally produced short range RBS 70 surface-to-air missile system. The lvrbv 701 is not NBC-protected and has no night vision equipment. Except for the armament, lvrbv 701 is identical to the Pansarvärnsrobotbandvagn 551 ATGM carrier. Both vehicles were built from the chassis of obsolete Infanterikanonvagn 103 self-propelled guns. Conversion to the lvrbv 701 was done during the 1980s and the vehicle was taken out of active service around the year 2000.
