Inside the Swedish factory helping to re-arm Europe

bae's hägglunds factory in sweden is ramping up production to handle a massive joint order from several european armies. the facility makes combat vehicles, including the cv90, and is now running near full capacity. the order is part of a broader push by european nations to rebuild their military stockpiles after years of underinvestment. the factory is hiring more workers and adding shifts to meet the demand. sweden, finland, and other countries have placed orders that will keep the plant busy for years. bae hasn't disclosed the exact value of the joint order, but it's described as huge and will stretch production timelines well into the 2030s. the company is also investing in new production lines and automation to speed things up.
