It takes approx 3 minute to launch the bridge.

  SISU XA-203S  

The Swedish Army has ordered 104 Finnish-made Patria SISU 6 x 6 wheeled APC's for delivery in the years 2000 to 2002, in part to replace some of the older Pbv302 tracked APC's. The Swedish vehicles will be fitted with the 20 mm gun turret from the Pbv302. There is also an option for an additional 60 vehicles. They are, as far as I know, not classified as armored personnel carriers but rather as armored transport vehicles.

Two versions of the SISU have been ordered, the XA-203S (S for Sweden) general purpose APC and the SISU XA-202S:

  SISU XA-202S  

The XA-202S is a command and control vehicle.

The Patria SISU XA-200 series of wheeled vehicles are more heavily armored than the older XA-180 series. This results in better protection for the crews (protects against calibers up to 12.7/14.5 mm) but also means that the XA-200 series are heavier and no longer are amphibious (fording depth 1.5 m)

  SISU XA-180S  

The SISU XA-180 have are used Kosovo. First in UN service, but now in KFOR service. They have also been a part of the IFOR and SFOR. They are popular among their crew, partly because they have proved very resistant to mines. The armor protects the passengers from splinters and 7.62 mm rounds.

The vehicles are fitted with a wire cutter placed on the front roof. This protects the crew in open hatches or on top of the vehicles from wires crossing the road.

It is fully amphibious.

  Piranha III 10x10  

Sweden has ordered the 10x10 command vehicle and sensor vehicle for the coastal artillery. The Piranha is in use by Canada, Denmark, Switzerland and Ireland.

  Batteriplatspansarbandvagn 3023

Firing data calculator (SKER) and communications equipment is installed inside the vehicle. The vehicle is used in the selfpropelled howitzers battalions.
