Sweden always was no big army in size, theoretically, so I read, they wanted to call up up to 750,000 soldiers in case of ware, but that would have been possible only after several months of organisation, retraining and refreshing courses. However, technologically, during the cold war and afterwards, the Swedish forces always have been amongst the very best. Many of their systems and platforms are top notch and some things they have that even the Americans cry for not having them themselves.
About to be correct,so was this theoretically over 1.000.000 and not for several months,more like 3-4 weeks.Today we have other organisation and technologig for a force,for about approx 50.000.-70.000 and high tech in navy stuff and planes,,,but things can be change.....
