-The '''luftvärnsrobotvagn (lvrbv) 701''' is a Swedish self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicle equipped with a short-range RB 70 surface-to-air missile system designed and built in Sweden. The vehicle does not have NBC protection and does not have night vision capabilities. Except for the weaponry, the lvrbv 701 is identical to the [[Pvrbv 551|pansarvärnsrobotbandvagn (pvrbv) 551 ATGM carrier]]. Both vehicles were constructed on the chassis of old [[ikv 103|infanterikanonvagn (ikv) 103]] self-propelled guns (however, some pvrbv 551s were constructed on the ikv 102 chassis instead). A total of 49 units were built and were in limited service throughout their lifespan. The vehicle was decommissioned in the early 2000s.
+The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a Swedish self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicle equipped with a short-range [[Rbs 70]] surface-to-air missile system designed and built by Bofors, up to 5km range depending on the weather conditions due to the missile being guided by the operator. The {{PAGENAME}} were developed alongside the [[Pvrbv 551]] using the same chassis built on the Ikv 102 and [[Ikv 103]] chassis that were decommissioned but the {{PAGENAME}} were only built on leftover [[Ikv 103]] and were given a new purpose. Both {{PAGENAME}} and [[Pvrbv 551]] share similar production history, only noticeable difference is the armarments with the {{PAGENAME}} being an anti-air unit. Sharing also similar issues as the [[Pvrbv 551]] with an underpowered engine, making it sluggish off-road. A total of 48 units were built in early 1980's and wouldn't be delivered until between 1984 to 1986 they were used in limited service for the anti-air companies throughout their use in the Swedish service. The vehicle were decommissioned in the early 2000s.
 Introduced in [[Update 1.97 "Viking Fury"]], the lvrbv 701 is a special self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicle with some capability to fight enemy ground vehicles. With the upgraded RB 70 Mark 2 surface-to-air missile's outstanding 200 mm armour penetration, this compact vehicle is capable of killing both lighter enemy ground targets and aircraft. Furthermore, the vehicle's low profile aids in stealth during engagements and allows players to hide behind low obstacles. However, the lvrbv 701 lacks a search radar, requiring players to manually locate enemy air targets with their eyes, resulting in low efficiency. Finally, due to the vehicle's limited elevation, players will have difficulty engaging hostile aircraft at high altitudes.

 When the {{PAGENAME}} spots an air target, it's important to think about what you're engaging. Helicopters such as the [[Ka-50]], can easily see the missile coming, and are usually expecting some sort of retaliation for launching missiles away from the battlefield. A tip is not to attempt to lock such targets, and instead estimate the distance, and launch it when they're busy. When fighting helicopters at close range, such as the [[AH-1G]], or [[Mi-28N]], it is important to launch as soon as possible, and destroy them before they get above you, as you have no ability to destroy them at point-blank distance.
-Aircraft are slightly more difficult to destroy, as the RB 70 missile lacks significant velocity compared to other systems. Instead, the manoeuvrability of the missile comes to a lot of help as planes will struggle to avoid it while manoeuvring. When first engaging an aircraft, knowing if it has RWR is critical, as aircraft aware of you might go for another pass or even worse strafe you from a blind spot. The missile works best when attacking at medium range, where the aircraft is either approaching or flying parallel to your position. Aircraft are usually easy to kill, but should always be engaged with consideration, as your reload leaves you vulnerable to counter-attacks from the same opponent.
