Primo Victoria

Approximately 240 Centurion Mk. III and Mk. V tanks were purchased for the needs of the Swedish Armed Forces. The vehicles were designated Strv 81, underwent multiple modernizations and remained in service until the early 2000s. In August 2017, one vehicle was presented to the Swedish band Sabaton and was heavily customized—the British steel was reforged to pure Swedish metal, and thus it became the true headbanger tank.
