The Mighty Jingles visited the Arsenalen, The Swedish Tank Museum, and this video is a tour of several of the vehicles on hand there. The Museum recently partnered with Wargaming, the maker of World of Tanks.

Ah, gotta love 1:1 scale...now I need photos of their collection to entice me from one land of ice 'n snow to another of equal dreariness. At least during the next half-year or so.

Hello! Those aren't cleaning rods on the "S" Tank! Those are tube supports for the swim screen! Nice museum.

No kidding!? I was just reading the Takom instructions for my Tiger II....it says upwards of 300,000 man hours of labor went by each tank! Not sure if that's correct, it may just be an alternative fact.... but still? Crazy!
