The '''Combat Vehicle 90''' ('''CV90''') ({{lang-sv|stridsfordon 90}}, strf 90) is a family of Swedish tracked armoured [[Engineering:Combat vehicle|combat vehicle]]s designed by the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV), Hägglunds and Bofors during the mid-1980s to early 1990s, before entering service in Sweden in the mid-1990s. The CV90 platform design has continuously evolved from the Mk 0 to the current Mk IV with technological advances and changing battlefield requirements. The Swedish version of the main [[Engineering:Infantry fighting vehicle|infantry fighting vehicle]] (IFV) is fitted with a turret from Bofors equipped with a 40 mm Bofors [[Engineering:Autocannon|autocannon]]. Export versions are fitted with Hägglunds E-series turrets, armed with either a [[Engineering:Mk44 Bushmaster II|30&nbsp;mm Mk44]] or a [[Engineering:Bushmaster III|35&nbsp;mm Bushmaster]] autocannon.<ref name="urlCV90 Armoured Combat Vehicle - Army Technology">{{cite web |title= CV90 Armoured Combat Vehicle |url=https://www.army-technology.com/projects/cv90/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181031052355/https://www.army-technology.com/projects/cv90/ |archive-date=31 October 2018 |website=Army Technology}}</ref>

Developed specifically for the Nordic [[Earth:Subarctic climate|subarctic climate]], the vehicle has very good mobility in snow and wetlands while carrying and supporting eight, and in later versions six, fully equipped soldiers. Other variants include forward artillery observation, command and control, anti-aircraft, [[Engineering:Armoured recovery vehicle|armoured recovery vehicle]], [[Social:Electronic warfare|electronic warfare]] versions and so forth. Currently, 1,400 vehicles in 17 variants are (or will be) in service with ten user states, seven of which are part of the NATO alliance.<ref name="BAE 2023-05-24">{{cite web |date=24 May 2023 |title=Czech Republic awards BAE Systems $2.2 billion contract to acquire 246 CV90s |url=https://www.baesystems.com/en-us/article/czech-republic-awards-bae-systems-contract-to-acquire-246-cv90s |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/2023.05.24-142858/https://www.baesystems.com/en-us/article/czech-republic-awards-bae-systems-contract-to-acquire-246-cv90s |archive-date=24 May 2023}}</ref>

== History ==
During the [[History:Cold War|Cold War]], in 1983, the Swedish Army required vehicles with high mobility, air defence and anti-tank capability, high survivability and protection. In 1985, the "stridsfordon 90" project group, made up of representatives from the Swedish Armed Forces (''Försvarsmakten''), the FMV and Swedish industry (including Hägglunds and Bofors), finalized the design for a "unity vehicle" that originated from an {{wipe|Royal Swedish Air Force}} concept. In 1986, the prototypes for strf 9040 and strf 9025 were ordered. Five prototypes were constructed but, before delivery in 1988, the 9025 version was discontinued. The prototypes were tested during extensive trials between 1988 and 1991, during which prototypes for specialized variants (forward observation, command and control, and armoured recovery vehicles) were ordered.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://fmv.se/sv/Projekt/Stridsfordon-90/Milstolpar/ | publisher =FMV | work = Projekt Stridsfordon 90 | language = sv | place = SE | title = Milstolpar |access-date=13 October 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131016061332/http://www.fmv.se/sv/Projekt/Stridsfordon-90/Milstolpar/ |archive-date=16 October 2013 |url-status=live}}</ref> The first deliveries started in 1994.

The CV90 has undergone four mark shifts to meet different customer requirements, focusing on capability enhancements.

===CV90 Mk 0===
The first CV90 delivered (retroactively named mark 0) was for Sweden, and was armed with a Bofors 40/70B cannon (a dedicated [[Engineering:Armoured fighting vehicle|armored fighting vehicle]] variant of the Bofors 40 mm Automatic Gun L/70) in a two-man turret, which had beaten out the 25&nbsp;mm [[Engineering:M242 Bushmaster|M242 Bushmaster]] chain gun during initial prototype trials. The Mk 0 has a conventional electrical system and was [[Engineering:For but not with|fitted for but not with]] appliqué armour systems. The Swedish Army ordered five variants of the CV90. The requirements expressed by the Swedish FMV on signature management were extremely challenging and led to a lot of new design features inherited by all subsequent generations (Mks 0 to III). FMV also prioritized the requirements to provide the best possible design to fulfil user needs. Furthermore, the CV90 was also built for high reliability and ease of maintenance using only standard onboard tools and for conscripts to maintain and operate.

===CV90 Mk I===
The next variant of CV90, known as the Mk I, was delivered to Norway after winning the country's competition for a new IFV against contemporaries such as the American [[Engineering:M2 Bradley|M2 Bradley]], British FV510 Warrior, and Austro-Spanish ASCOD (Pizarro/ULAN). The Mk I variant of the CV90 had a newly designed two-man 30&nbsp;mm turret, evolved from the 25&nbsp;mm turret. CV90 Mk I was the first IFV with high-hit probability performance during suppression fire modes, both while the vehicle is on the move and against air targets. The CV90 Mk I incorporated several improvements over the original Swedish CV90. Evaluations of mobility, reliability, lethality, fightability, ergonomics, durability and survivability were performed during the CV90 Mk I trial phase for these vehicles, with good results.

===CV90 Mk II===
The CV90 Mk I was the base for the next development, the CV90 Mk II. The Mk II was produced in three variants: the CV9030 CH (Switzerland) IFV and COM, and the CV9030 FIN (Finland) IFV. Both contracts were won in competition against other IFVs. One significant difference between the two variants was hull size: the Swiss variant is 100&nbsp;mm higher over the front, with an additional 70&nbsp;mm over the combat compartment at the rear. Another difference is the Mk II's partial digitization and built-in Health & Unit Monitoring System (HUMS), along with interactive manuals and instructions. The CV90 Mk II's standard armament is the Mk44 Bushmaster II autocannon.

===CV90 Mk III===
The Mk III variant of the CV90 is a further development of the CV90 Mk II. The areas that underwent the most development were lethality, fightability, electronic architecture, survivability and mobility. The weapon system was upgraded to a 35/50&nbsp;mm Bushmaster III cannon with an integrated muzzle ammunition programmer and a number of different firing scenarios depending on target setup. The crew station design provides the gunner and commander with a continuous eye-on-target engagement feature (crew members do not need to remove their head from the [[Astronomy:Eyepiece|eyepiece]] to see and operate equipment).

Further electronic architecture upgrades made the Mk III completely digitized. Mobility improvements consisted of upgraded suspension and enhanced [[Engineering:Power-to-weight ratio|power-to-weight ratio]] to handle the increased gross vehicle weight. Improved survivability mainly came in the areas of mine protection and top attack. Horizontal protection was designed in similar ways to other CV90 variants, i.e. appliqué systems. The first variant of the Mk III, the Mk IIIa, was delivered to the Netherlands and Denmark, and the second, more modern Mk IIIb variant was delivered to Norway.

===CV90 Mk IV===
[[File:CV 90 Mk IV SIAF-2022.jpg|thumb|CV90 Mk IV variant]]
The CV90 Mk IV is equipped with a new [[Company:Scania AB|Scania]] engine which develops up to {{convert|1000|hp|kW}} and the latest upgraded X300 heavy-duty transmission. Its maximum weight was increased from 35 to 37 tonnes, with space for two tonnes of additional [[Engineering:Payload|payload]], without a decrease in vehicle agility. It features a new [[Augmented reality|augmented reality]] system named {{Proper name |iFighting}}. The {{Proper name|iFighting}} concept fuses data from different systems within the vehicle to filter and prioritize the most critical information, allowing quicker crew decision-making and improved battlefield performance. The Mk IV generation will also be the first Western IFV with a qualified Active Protection System. It will be equipped with fourth generation electronic architecture supporting future technology adoption and growth.<ref name="urlBae Systems presents the new CV90 MK4 Infantry Fighting Vehicle | IAV 2018 News Show Daily | Defence security military exhibition 2018 daily news category">{{cite web |url=https://www.armyrecognition.com/iav_2018_news_show_daily/bae_systems_presents_the_new_cv90_mk4_infantry_fighting_vehicle.html |title=Bae Systems presents the new CV90 MK4 Infantry Fighting Vehicle &#124; IAV 2018 News Show Daily &#124; Defence security military exhibition 2018 daily news category |date=26 January 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181031055335/https://www.armyrecognition.com/iav_2018_news_show_daily/bae_systems_presents_the_new_cv90_mk4_infantry_fighting_vehicle.html |archive-date=31 October 2018 |url-status=live}}</ref>

=== CV90 Mk V ===
The Swedish army is supporting the development of an improved variant from between 2023 and 2027. No agreement has yet been concluded between the FMV and the industry on that development. The development goals focus on:
* A hybrid electric propulsion system will be proposed and potentially integrated to this version
* The C4ISR system is to be fully digitalized
* Improvement of the heat, radar and visual signature management of the vehicle
* Integrate Beyond Line Of Sight (BLOS) [[Engineering:Anti-tank guided missile|anti-tank guided missile]]s. The Akeron MP is the next long range shoulder launched anti-tank missile, and it has a BLOS capability.
* Integration of [[Engineering:Unmanned aerial vehicle|UAV]]. This variant might be ordered, and it would extend the life time of the CV90 in the Swedish Army beyond 2034. An upgrade of the IFV variant (strf 90) including some of these elements is very likely.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ferran |first=Lee |date=31 January 2023 |title=Sweden eyes next-gen, hybrid CV-90 infantry fighting vehicle |url = https://breakingdefense.sites.breakingmedia.com/2023/01/sweden-eyes-next-gen-hybrid-cv-90-infantry-fighting-vehicle/ |access-date=18 March 2023 |website=Breaking Defense |language=en-US |archive-date=21 August 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230821191957/https://breakingdefense.com/2023/01/sweden-eyes-next-gen-hybrid-cv-90-infantry-fighting-vehicle/ |url-status= live }}</ref> Initial tests involving the use of the Akeron MP and of a UAV has been performed in January 2023.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Miller |first=Stephen W. |date=10 February 2023 |title= CV90 Mk IV IFV Integrates Akeron 5th Gen Missile |url=https://www.armadainternational.com/2023/02/cv90-mk-iv-ifv-integrates-akeron-5th-gen-missile/ |access-date=18 March 2023 |website= Armada International |language=en-US |archive-date=21 August 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230821202105/https://www.armadainternational.com/2023/02/cv90-mk-iv-ifv-integrates-akeron-5th-gen-missile/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

== Design ==
Varying customer requirements have led to multiple CV90 variants with major differences in survivability and electronic architecture. Increased protection has led to higher curb weight; the vehicle's combat weight has risen from 23 to 35 tonnes. With increasingly powerful diesel engines, the power-to-weight ratio has remained approximately the same. The track suspension system has seen several successive upgrades.

The Mk III version has a digital electronic architecture with several different [[CAN bus|CAN-buses]] and digital networks, and is the first IFV incorporating an automatic [[Engineering:Defensive aids system|defensive aide suite]] which classifies threats and, in automatic mode, can fire smoke and/or the main gun to eliminate or evade targets, as well as instruct the driver on potential threats. At the Eurosatory 2010 exhibition, a version called Armadillo<ref name="armadillo2010">{{cite web|url=http://www.defensenews.com/story.php?i=4654809|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130121170341/http://www.defensenews.com/story.php?i=4654809|url-status=dead|archive-date=21 January 2013|last=Mahon|first=Tim|title=BAE To Unveil CV90 Armadillo at Eurosatory |newspaper=Defense News|date=3 June 2010}}</ref> was presented. The Armadillo shown was an [[Engineering:Armoured personnel carrier|armoured personnel carrier]] (APC) version. The basic chassis can be readily converted to ambulance, control vehicle or other turreted versions.

=== Protection ===
The CV9040's basic armour provides all-round protection against 14.5&nbsp;mm armour-piercing rounds. Armour protection over the frontal arc is classified, but all models from CV9040B onwards are said to be protected against 30&nbsp;mm [[Engineering:Armour-piercing fin-stabilized discarding sabot|APFSDS]] rounds. Some variants, including the CV9030N, can be fitted with MEXAS, a ceramic appliqué armor that provides protection against 30&nbsp;mm APFSDS. This armour kit is intended to provide increased protection against improvised explosive devices, explosively formed penetrators, and 30 mm caliber armour-piercing rounds.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mindef.gov.sg/imindef/publications/cyberpioneer/weapon/2007/nov07_weapon.html |title=Swedish versatility |access-date=17 November 2008 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120805082938/http://www.mindef.gov.sg/imindef/publications/cyberpioneer/weapon/2007/nov07_weapon.html |archive-date=5 August 2012 |url-status=live}}</ref> All CV90s are fitted with a [[Chemistry:Spall|spall]] liner, which covers the interior spaces and provides protection for the troops inside against shrapnel and anti-personnel artillery munitions.

The CV90 can be also fitted with cage armour, which provides protection against tandem-charge and [[Engineering:Shaped charge|shaped charge]] warheads. The CV90 is fitted with a nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) filtration system accompanied by a chemical detector and radiation detector systems. The CV90 also uses heat-absorbing filters to provide temporary protection against thermal imaging, [[Physics:Image intensifier|image intensifier]]s and infrared cameras. The CV90 was designed with a very low and compact structure to minimize radar and IR signatures.

With every generation of CV90 there has been an increase in payload and corresponding protection levels. The inherent mine protection levels have risen substantially to presently defeat the heaviest (10&nbsp;kg TNT) anti-tank mines.<ref name="armadillo2010" />

In December 2016, BAE Systems received a contract from the Netherlands to test the Israel Military Industries Iron Fist active protection system on their CV9035 vehicles. Iron Fist employs a multi-sensor early warning system using both infrared and radar sensors to deploy soft- and hard-kill countermeasures against anti-tank rockets and missiles. A decision for integration was to be made by early 2018.

In 2011, Hägglunds (now BAE Systems AB) demonstrated a version with an [[Engineering:Active camouflage|infrared camouflage]] called [[Engineering:Adaptiv|Adaptiv]], consisting of thermoelectric plates capable of posing as many different objects, such as ordinary cars, stones, trees etc. to an enemy IR-viewfinder. It takes 1,500 plates to cover a CV90, at a cost of $100 per plate.<ref>[http://ing.dk/artikel/121798-termoelektriske-plader-tryller-en-kampvogn-om-til-en-bil Thermo-electric plates turn a tank into a car] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110927005142/http://ing.dk/artikel/121798-termoelektriske-plader-tryller-en-kampvogn-om-til-en-bil |date=27 September 2011}} [http://ing.dk/artikel/121839-svensk-kamaeleon-kampvogn-aendrer-form Pictures] {{Webarchive | url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110923194536/http://ing.dk/artikel/121839-svensk-kamaeleon-kampvogn-aendrer-form |date=23 September 2011}}, Ing.dk 13 September 2011.

=== Mobility ===
The CV90 Mk 0 is powered by a DSI14 engine developed by Scania, which provides 550 horsepower and can reach speeds of {{convert|70|km|mi}} per hour. The basic CV90 has a maximum road range of {{convert|320|km|mi}}, but the latest generation can reach up to {{convert|600|km|mi}}.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.deagel.com/Self-Propelled-Howitzers/CV90-AMOS_a000589009.aspx |title= Ancile | publisher = Daegel |access-date=15 January 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130801054104/http://www.deagel.com/Self-Propelled-Howitzers/CV90-AMOS_a000589009.aspx |archive-date= 1 August 2013 |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.casr.ca/bg-army-ccv-cv90.htm | work =CF Armoured Vehicles | title = CV90 Series | publisher = CASR |access-date= 3 April 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100410100536/http://www.casr.ca/bg-army-ccv-cv90.htm |archive-date=10 April 2010 |url-status=live}}</ref> The CV90 offers quiet movement for improved stealth, high speed over good terrain, and high ground clearance for protection against mines and improvised explosive devices.

BAE Systems is considering upgrading the CV90 with a [[Engineering:Hybrid vehicle drivetrain|hybrid-electric]] propulsion system as armies look to cut fuel expenses to respond to environmental issues and fuel economy. A hybrid-electric drive could cut fuel consumption by 10 to 30 percent. The new system would also provide a power boost to move the vehicle. The hybrid-electric combines a standard diesel engine with a battery pack to provide extra power to propel the vehicle or provide additional electricity.<ref>[http://www.armyrecognition.com/august_2013_defense_industry_military_army_news_uk/bae_systems_may_upgrade_cv90_armoured_infantry_fighting_vehicle_with_hybrid-electric_propulsion_1008.html BAE Systems may upgrade CV90 armoured infantry fighting vehicle with hybrid-electric propulsion] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150923174255/http://www.armyrecognition.com/august_2013_defense_industry_military_army_news_uk/bae_systems_may_upgrade_cv90_armoured_infantry_fighting_vehicle_with_hybrid-electric_propulsion_1008.html |date=23 September 2015}} – Army recognition, 10 August 2013</ref> BAE Systems Hägglunds uses the knowledge acquired through many years of hybrid-electric drive development for the military SEP vehicles and the ongoing civilian hybrid-electric projects for forest machines, airplane howlers and loaders.

In April 2015, BAE Systems fitted a CV90 with an [[Engineering:Active suspension|active damping suspension system]] derived from Formula One racing cars. This technology calculates the vehicle's speed and anticipates the terrain ahead, then pressurizes the suspension at independent points to lift the chassis and keep the vehicle level. The suspension, which had been modified to suit a 38-ton armored vehicle rather than a {{convert|700|kg|lb|abbr=on}} racing car, reportedly increases speed by 30-40 percent on rough terrain, outrunning main battle tanks, decreases vehicle pitch acceleration by 40 percent, gives greater maneuverability and stability for on-the-move gunnery, and reduces crew fatigue and life-cycle costs.<ref>[http://www.gizmag.com/bae-cv90-active-damping/37198/ "BAE System's CV90 armor vehicle uses F1 racing suspension technology."] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150716063330/http://www.gizmag.com/bae-cv90-active-damping/37198/ |date=16 July 2015}} ''Gizmag'', 27 April 2015.</ref>

=== Armament ===
The basic Swedish CV90 (strf 9040) is fitted with a two-man turret armed with a Bofors 40/70B autocannon and a coaxial 7.62&nbsp;mm machine gun. The CV90 also carries six 76 mm grenade launchers, which are arranged in two clusters of three launchers; the clusters are positioned on each side of the turret. The grenade launchers are intended for smoke grenades, but can also be loaded with a variety of combat grenades.

The CV90 export variants are fitted with a Hägglunds E-series turret, with more than 600 ''E30'' (30&nbsp;mm Bushmaster II) and ''E35'' (35&nbsp;mm Bushmaster III) turrets delivered. BAE Systems Australia presented an offer for LAND 400 Phase 3 is the CV9035 with an E35 turret. It provides high commonality with BAE Systems’ LAND 400 Phase 2 CRV offer – the AMV35 – through its use of the same E35 turret system.

=== Sight ===
The CV90 is equipped with the Universal Tank and Anti-Aircraft Sight from Saab which has daytime optical, thermal imaging system and Generation III image intensification.

=== 2004: Strf 9040C in Liberia ===
First use was by the Swedish UN forces in Liberia 2004, where 13 strf 9040C were deployed.<ref name="fmv.se"/>

=== 2007: CV9030N in Afghanistan ===
Since production began in 1993, the CV90 had remained untested in combat until November 2007, when Norwegian Army CV90s from the 2nd Battalion saw heavy combat during Operation Harekate Yolo in Afghanistan. During the first week of November, Norwegian ISAF forces from the 2nd Battalion and ''Kystjegerkommandoen'' based in Mazar-e-Sharif, responded to a [[Religion:Taliban|Taliban]] attack on Afghan National Army forces in the Ghowrmach district. Having been heavily outnumbered by the Taliban forces, the Norwegians used mortars and, in particular, CV90s, to suppress the attack. The operation left an unknown number of Taliban casualties, but Norwegian news sources say as many as 45 to 65 Taliban fighters may have been killed, and many more wounded.<ref name="nor-mod">{{cite web |url=http://www.mil.no/start/article.jhtml?articleID=147513 |title=Vi har trent for dette lenge |access-date=10 November 2007 |date=8 November 2007 |publisher=Norwegian Armed Forces |language=no |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071109120007/http://www.mil.no/start/article.jhtml?articleID=147513 |archive-date=9 November 2007}}</ref>

The CV90 was later used extensively by ISAF forces of the Norwegian Army's Telemark Battalion in May 2008, when the battalion came under heavy machine gun and RPG fire from Taliban fighters during Operation Karez in Badghis Province. The attack left 13 Taliban fighters dead and an unknown number wounded. No allied casualties were reported.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.aftenposten.no/nyheter/uriks/article2447971.ece |title=Norske ISAF-soldater: "Plutselig smalt det.

=== 2010: CV9035DK in Afghanistan ===
In February 2010, Denmark sent ten CV9035DKs to Afghanistan in order to bolster their contingent in Helmand Province. The Danish contingent had suffered numerous casualties since they began operations in the province in the autumn of 2006. The vehicles are from the Danish Royal Lifeguard Regiment, based in the Northern part of Seeland. They are working alongside MOWAG Piranha IIIC, [[Engineering:Mowag Eagle|MOWAG Eagle]] IV, [[Engineering:M113 armored personnel carrier|M113 G3DK]] and Leopard 2A5DK vehicles, all contributed by Denmark, in the Helmand Province. By April 2010, two of the ten vehicles had been hit with IEDs, in both cases protecting the crew and passengers from personal injury.<ref>http://www.berlingske.dk/krigen/nye-koeretoejer-staar-stille-i-helmand {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100412030112/http://www.berlingske.dk/krigen/nye-koeretoejer-staar-stille-i-helmand |date=12 April 2010}} Nye køretøjer står stille i Helmand</ref> The vehicles lost two wheels and tracks, and were sent back to the manufacturer in Sweden for further investigation. On 7 August 2010, a CV9035DK hit an IED in Afghanistan, killing two soldiers and wounding another three. The explosion was so powerful that the vehicle was turned over.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://forsvaret.dk/HOK/Nyt%20og%20Presse/ISAF/Pages/Todr%C3%A6btedanskesoldaterogtres%C3%A5rede.aspx |title=To dræbte danske soldater og tre sårede |access-date=2 March 2012 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20120302075549/http://forsvaret.dk/HOK/Nyt%20og%20Presse/ISAF/Pages/Todr%C3%A6btedanskesoldaterogtres%C3%A5rede.aspx |archive-date=2 March 2012 |url-status=dead}}</ref>
