-The '''{{Specs|name}}''' were an upgrade package for the [[Strv 121]] to meet the standards of the [[Strv 122]], but since the Defence Act 2004 most of the [[Strv 121]]'s were already in storage since the 2000's due to the widespread adoption of [[Strv 122]] which rendered the upgrade package obsolete and project to upgrade were abandoned with only one prototype made to this standard.

-The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' are an Swedish premium medium tank, it was introduced in [[Update "Alpha Strike"]] bolstering the Swedish line with a good all around vehicle for players to grind with. It's an vehicle who most experienced players are familiar with and most knows weaknesses and strenghts to it, but it can be a struggle for newer players to use due to lack experience of the game. {{PAGENAME}} is similar to the [[Strv 121]] in playstyle, an excellent all around vehicle where it got the mobility to get to desired location of the map with ease, the [[Kan Strv 121 (120 mm)|Kan Strv 121]] which have excellent firepower to deal with most other MBT's but still will have to take caution on aiming for the weaker parts of armour due to penetration can still be a bit lacking for certain targets. {{PAGENAME}} is best used in positions where its hull is not exposed to hostile fire, the strongest part of the vehicle is its turret which can survive being hit superior to the hull. So using surrounding terrain to its advantage to peek and fire then get back into cover will improve the gameplay of the vehicle but if there is no sufficent cover for the vehicle, it can still put up an fight and do well.
+Introduced in [[Update "Alpha Strike"]], the '''{{Specs|name}}''' bolsters the Swedish line with a good all-around vehicle for players to grind with. Due to its similarity to the [[Strv 121]] and other [[Leopard 2 (Family)|Leopard 2]]s, experienced players find it familiar to use, but newer players may struggle to adapt to the gameplay dynamic of the higher tiers. The {{PAGENAME}} is an excellent all-round vehicle, with the mobility to get to desired locations on the map with ease. The 120 mm cannon has excellent firepower to deal with most other MBTs, but still needs to take care in aiming for the weaker parts of armour, as the penetration can be a bit lacking for more well-protected targets. The {{PAGENAME}} is best used in positions where its hull is not exposed to hostile fire; the strongest part of the vehicle is its turret which can survive being hit better than the hull, so using surrounding terrain to its advantage to peek and fire then get back into cover will improve the gameplay of the vehicle.

 <!-- ''Describe the tactics of playing in the vehicle, the features of using vehicles in the team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view but instead give the reader food for thought. Describe the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them.

-''Once you spend 70 dollar or euro, the 121b becomes the tank you will play the most, when grinding the swedish techtree. The 121 can be used comfortably in both urban and rural environments, providing the vehicle's weaknesses are kept in mind (the sides and hull). While it is capable in most forms of engagement, it does lack the precision of the British Challenger MBTs or the extreme round velocities of the Soviet T-64/T-80 series. The 121 also has a particularly large and blocky profile, making for a particularly visible target in many situations.''

 ''Considering the above, a strv 121b player should utilise its great mobility and competitive gun to get into early positions to pick off unsuspecting targets, rather than attempting to engage opposing forces head-on.''
