Dude, it’s SKF, they’re the global leading brand for bearing and they make bearing for everything that contain bearing, including your car, military weapon is one of it. To say it make part for weapon is saying a steel plant is supplying part for weapon because weapon use steel.
It is a factory belonging to SKF, a swedish company that produces bearings. Famous for supplying bearings for use in tanks by almost every major power during ww2, and supply to the german side was finally cut off when SKF told the allies that the entire stock was for sale to anyone who paid. I believe the last payment was made by the US 10-15 years ago, finally settling the debt.
Since the war, SKF has grown into a very large supplier of the highest quality bearings, and saying its a factory making parts for weapons is a bit narrow. Bearings are used in most things that have rotating parts, and SKF is large in a lot of markets that aren’t weapons. Their product catalogue is well over a thousand pages, for example.

Lmao that’s actually kind of a hilarious flex if you think about it:
“We will sell to anyone who can pay for it”
“Ok then. We will buy literally all of it, and all of what you produce for the next decade, because we don’t want those other guys to have it”
Will NATO finally finally invoke Article 5 now? Or will they even ignore strikes in Sweden? Will Russians have to kill everyone in the world before the cowards at NATO finally take action and eliminate the rogue country?
And last I checked invoking Article 5 requires the country to be part of NATO, so even if this were in Sweden, it would not trigger Article 5 as they are not yet a member of NATO...
Is say 80% of swedish really “Scandinavian” armed forces materials are built from the ground up for a very specific purpose (not the Danes, but add the Fins)
To cause the maximum amount of harm in terms of $$$ and lives to the Russian armed forces should a war be unavoidable while minimizing the $$$ and loss of life on the Scandinavian side.
The rest is for export strictly. Usually nasty stuff. Cluster bombs, rebranded Nato missiles etc.
We have had 80 years of military theory and development figuring out specifically how to fight Russians. Talk to a finn about it. They’re entire conscription service is based on training to fight the Z should the need ever arise.
Also sweden is the #1 weapons exporter per capita no?
Nope, my bad it’s Isreal with Sweden @ # 2
Don’t trust us when we talk about world peace and love lol.
Sweden no longer exports cluster bombs since 2019!
