Unsuccessful Purchase

In 1927, Sweden acquired one French NC-27 tank. Tests of this machine showed that it was not suitable for Swedish conditions, and the Scandinavians refused to make further purchases. However, it is thanks to this transaction that the only copy of this type of tank has been preserved in the world. Having spent some time in the role of a training machine, the Strv fm/28 (this name was given to the NC-27 in Sweden) joined the collection of the Arsenalen Museum in Strangnes.
