The '''Stridsvagn m/39''' was ordered in 1939 by KAF, that saw how new tank designs were shaping the battlefield, and the m/38 was considered to be too weak in terms of armour. The m/39 would have been a minor upgrade to its predecessor, with upgraded armour and other minor changes. AB Landsverk was against it however, since the m/38s hull was not able to sustain the increased weight. In the end, the turret was slightly modified, it included a new fire control system, as well as a lever steering system which was more favourable. While the m/38 was named L-60-S, the Stridsvagn m/39 was designated L-60-S/II.

The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a gift rank {{Specs|rank}} Swedish light tank {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced during [[Update "Starfighters"]] as a [[wt:en/news/6751-watch-streams-on-twitch-get-rewards-en|reward for watching War Thunder streams on Twitch.tv]] along with a unique skin for the vehicle.

It was introduced during [[Update "Starfighters"]] as a reward for [[wt:en/news/6751-watch-streams-on-twitch-get-rewards-en|watching War Thunder streams on Twitch.tv]] along with a unique skin for the vehicle. This vehicle shouldn't be confused as a tank destroyer (TD) by its designation, TD in this case stands for '''T'''witch '''D'''rop. It has the same exact gameplay style as the [[Strv m/39]], with access to good mobility and excellent firepower in the form of a good APDS shell. The turret's armour is increased to 50 mm of thickness, the gun depression is great with -15 degrees but the hull armour and cramped crew compartment make the tank extremely vulnerable to even autocannon fire.

Description

The Stridsvagn m/39 was ordered in 1939 by KAF, that saw how new tank designs were shaping the battlefield, and the m/38 was considered to be too weak in terms of armour. The m/39 would have been a minor upgrade to its predecessor, with upgraded armour and other minor changes. AB Landsverk was against it however, since the m/38s hull was not able to sustain the increased weight. In the end, the turret was slightly modified, it included a new fire control system, as well as a lever steering system which was more favourable. While the m/38 was named L-60-S, the Stridsvagn m/39 was designated L-60-S/II.

It was introduced during Update "Starfighters" as a reward for watching War Thunder streams on Twitch.tv along with a unique skin for the vehicle. This vehicle shouldn't be confused as a tank destroyer (TD) by its designation, TD in this case stands for Twitch Drop. It has the same exact gameplay style as the Strv m/39, with access to good mobility and excellent firepower in the form of a good APDS shell. The turret's armour is increased to 50 mm of thickness, the gun depression is great with -15 degrees but the hull armour and cramped crew compartment make the tank extremely vulnerable to even autocannon fire.

Usage in battles

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. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Still effective in up-tiers, since it has access to a high-penetrating APDS shell with an amazing 105 mm penetration and high velocity
  • Amazing -15 degrees gun depression means that it can adapt different terrains very well
  • Fast reload, up to 3.1 seconds with an aced crew
  • Decent turret armour, offering up to 35 mm at the front and with sloping for increased protection.
  • Fast top speed up to 45 km/h
  • Is a small target

Cons:

  • Only 3 crew members
  • Armour is inadequate to resist high-penetrating shells, for example a Pz.II can penetrate it frontally
  • Slow turret traverse speed with 11.2°/s
  • Very average reverse speed of -7 km/h
  • 5-8 mm roof armour can be penetrated by common aircraft such as ones with 12.7 mm M2, and He 112 A-0
  • Purple stripes may be eye-catching, decreasing its concealment
