690 new employees in the Navy in the Home Guard meant Sweden Southern defense was strengthened considerably and is now teeming with over 12,000 men in the southern forces, however, various scattered just 3 st regiment then small battalions that are contrary in America where there are large battalions in both the Marine Corps and ordinary the army but in Sweden's southern forces almost overpowering any attack up to 6 times more bout a thing of the past because I thought the Swedish defense in southern degrees beats out even many late up to 6 times more that 70,000 ground troops are not enough against Sweden. Only superior amounts of knocking out Sweden's current southern forces. Sweden's armed forces or the defense minister should be reduced to 4000 in the army, 400 navy and 600 in the Air Force. A total of 5,000 professionals in the armed forces sufficient to my words syllable. The reserve amount should be like current situation or you can raise 30,000 troops back to between 2012 to 2014. Or 60,000 same as in Estonia and then Sweden during the 2010/2011 season.
And stay after this in the EU. The safest this way. No EU country attacks another, according to many Europeans in the EU. Probably like this we want. No new war against each other.
So you want your military to be smaller than a single Brigade? Russia would be able to totally conquer you in less than a week.
If Russia wants war, they'd win handily. The Swedish military with 5,000 Personnel would cease to extheir st within hours.
Any country in the world would easily be able to just take Sweden over. If that's what you want, good luck.
4000 in Army and 1000 in the Navy. Of them 500 are Marines okay right. Air Force are gone from Defence.
No they can't. Not against overwhelming odds. Russia would outnumber you more than 100 to 1. - - - Updated - - - No Air Force means you have no navy and no army. They'd get destroyed by aircraft during the invasion. - - - Updated - - - Reserves take time to mobilize. What happens when Russia bombs their depots and takes out the regular army within hours?
I liked small militia and big Army size of course like Americas regular Army big thing with both. Southern formations today are power in Sweden. More than 6 times bigger to ends victory against Southern formations.
Russia need only 70,000 against Swedish first size. Closer 39,000 and 50/50 Proffesionel, Home Guards.
I think kicking out almost all the Muslims would make Sweden vastly more safe----and the welfare savings alone would pay for the extra troops.
Re thinks I want to 57,000 proffesionels armies or take back concripts Army but under 2009 size. Is big size we can have but maybe we will have 78,000 or 124,000 are strong enough.
What do Americans think about Swedish Armed Forces ? Maybe 6000 proffesionel armies then 78,000 Army reserve.
Personally, I do not care what Sweden or any other country does with it's military. Double it or gut it, makes no difference to me. They are not even members of NATO, so good luck if anybody invades them. Not my problem.
It seems the Swedes do not agree. http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/sweden-reintroduce-military-conscription-45852709
17.700 in Swedish armed forces are what it perhaps will be national security. But I Thinks current force are top 10 in World.
Sweden will now has concripts with 13.000 from year 1999 born date then has at least 4000 troops in concripts Army final solution.
