IKV-72
Infanterikanonvagn 72
The Infanterikanonvagn 72 (Ikv 72) was a light assault gun developed by Landsverk.
In early 1949, the Swedish Army initiated a project for an assault gun was to provide direct fire support for infantry attacks. The vehicle was intended to replace towed guns in the infantry support role. Requirements for the new vehicle included low cost so that many vehicles can be constructed and small, lightweight design with a limit of 6 tons.
In 1952, Landsverk took part in this project.
From 1953 to 1954, 36 Ikv 72s were delivered to the Swedish Army.
