The Stridsvagn m / 40 (alternate designation: L-60 m / 40) was a Swedish WWII light tank. The first prototypes of this car were made in 1940, and soon it entered mass production. In the m / 40 K version, the drive was provided by a single motor Scania-Vabis with a power of 160 hp. The cart was 5.97 meters long and 2.08 meters wide. The armament consisted of a 37mm Bofors cannon and an 8mm machine gun coupled to it.

The Stridsvagn m / 40 was developed as a development of the Stridsvagn m / 39, which entered the Swedish army at the beginning of World War II. The changes introduced in it reflected, first of all, the observations and conclusions drawn from the armed conflict that was taking place at that time. First of all, compared to its predecessor, it was slightly larger and heavier. It also received much better armor - especially the front of the hull and the entire turret. The tower itself was also modernized. The resulting tank was called the Stridsvagn m / 40 L. However, over time, its modernized version (Stridsvagn m / 40 K) was created, with a new power unit with more power and modernized additional weapons. 80 of the latter tanks were produced and delivered to the Swedish army in 1942-1944. It is worth adding that the main producer of these tanks was the Swedish AB Landsverk plant, and more precisely the company's subcontractor - Karlstads Mekaniska Verkstad.
