Galleria fotografica di un Stridsvagn m-38 · Stridsvagn L-60 (Strv L-60), also known as Landsverk L-60, was a Swedish tank developed in 1934. It was developed by AB Landsverk as a light tank which included several advanced design features such as torsion bar suspension, periscopes rather than view slits and all-welded construction. The L-60 was progressively improved and four variants were created: L-60A, L-60B, L-60C (37mm gun), L-60D (new turret and 37mm gun and twin machine guns). The L-60 eventually evolved into the Stridsvagn m/38 and subsequent Stridsvagn m/39 and Stridsvagn m/40 and was adopted by the Swedish army as such.

The Stridsvagn m-38 was a Swedish light tank that entered service in 1939. It was based on the Czechoslovakian LT vz. 38 tank, which Sweden ordered from Germany after the annexation of Czechoslovakia. The Stridsvagn m-38 had a crew of four, a 37 mm gun and two machine guns, and a top speed of 42 km/h. It was well-armored for its time, but soon became obsolete as the war progressed. The Stridsvagn m-38 was used by the Swedish army until 1959, and some were exported to Ethiopia and the Dominican Republic.
