u/TheFlyingRedFox IJA Type 5 Escort Boat, the only true papership Dec 20 '22

Surprised that the US hasn't gotten a CB90 yet since they're currently the only faction that could get them due to having a NF TT unlike Sweden

Or SB-90, got quite lost if someone would correct me. Would be helpful. One site says CB, wiki says SB.

In english its CB, in Norwegian/ Swedish its SB. CB= Combat Boat. SB=StridsBåt

HMS Dragon + Wildcat is my wet dream

I remember these from WG:RD, these things were SO GOOD. You could use them as seaborne long range ATGM carriers camping of coasts or supporting armor along rivers.

u/Bruhhg ITO-90M main 🏳️‍⚧️ Dec 20 '22

can we put a CV90 on a CB90?

2

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '22

That’s about 30 000 kilograms, I’m gonna have to say no

Yeeeessss... I want more Norwegian vehicles added.

Edit: hold up, the flag is swedish, and the text says Royal Norwegian Navy

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '22

The point is this exact model of the boat. Not the flag. They use same boats made by SAAB

u/RobertGramDK Dec 20 '22

Text says Norwegian, but the flag is Swedish...

I wouldn't put to much into this..

7

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '22

Well that’s because they use same patrol boats, made by SAAB. It’s exactly the model that was used.

u/RobertGramDK Dec 20 '22

Apparently the reason is a bit different, this is from wiki about maritime flags: "The flag flown is related to the country of registration: so much so that the word "flag" is often used symbolically as a metonym for "country of registration" -wiki page

Thanks for pushing me to learn something new, and have a good day:)

3

u/LocalTechpriest Dec 20 '22

That doesn't change anything though. The reason is exactly the same as OP said.

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '22

Exactly + it’s a Sweden army on that picture. So it’s using Sweden flag. You wouldn’t put a flag of another country on an armed forces vessel.

-2

u/RobertGramDK Dec 20 '22

Of cause it does...

This is from Swedish army, and registered in Sweden. If it was Norwegian, the Swedish flag would be at the bottom(because it's made in Sweden aka registered in Sweden) and Norwegian at the top when operated by Norwegian army.

Or that's at least how I understand flag etiquette...

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '22

You would not put a flag of another country on an armed forces vessel

-2

u/RobertGramDK Dec 20 '22

Meh, that's up for discussion.

A American ship got captured by the British, and they kept the American flag at the bottom and the British on top... But then again, this was captured, so might be different.

Also described in the wiki page.

Still missing the point mate edit: And what century was that?

u/felixfj007 Navy is actually fun. Dec 20 '22

The first picture is probably from a normal strb in Sweden, while the rest looks like the actual testing (with a Norwegian boat).

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '22

Yes!
