In a significant move highlighting international cooperation and support for Ukraine’s defense capabilities, Sweden has confirmed the transfer of 239 Pansarbandvagn 302 (Pbv 302) armored vehicles to Ukraine as part of its 16th defense aid package. Developed by Hägglund & Söner in the 1960s, the Pbv 302 has long been a cornerstone of Sweden’s armored fleet, serving dutifully until its retirement from active service in 2014.
