Antenna, can't you engineer us a discount? I can't pay $13,000, but I might be able to scrape up $13...

Paul, did you mean for the MTLB? You might be able to only use it at one place in Sweden - the Stockholm airport. No actual word on the website if it's open yet...

It's a shame really. Sweden is a great place to visit!

OK, $35 and an old LCD monitor (still working and kept as a backup) -- but they have to throw in the commander's machinegun.

I've come to the conclusion I will probably never leave this city again, except possibly as a corpse (I'm going to donate my body to science). Shortage of funds.

I'd rather a load of spare parts. You just know you'll need them...

San Antonio is notorious for its traffic snarls. I'd rather have the machinegun! But I can throw in an extra Linksys router and a bunch of spare CAT5 cables I have for a load of spare parts.

According to the rumour mil Sweden bought about 800-1000 of witch they immediately scrapped 200-400 to get spare parts.

So am quite sure there are spare parts. Sometimes u can see people selling a MTLB motor in almost mint condition.

Default MTLB

I think they are actually quite good vehicles for difficult terrain and so on -I couldnt say anything about the workmanship though...

probably a bombproof design.Maybe some of of our Swedish friends here have heard anything about them in use from "lumpen" ( conscription ) ?
Several batallions must have been set up with these
