The '''Stridsvagn 131 ''' is a main battle tank currently in development by Landrut Landsystemet GmbH and Kolb-Blomqvist AB for the [[Acrean Armed Forces]]. Currently, although accepted for service it primarily acts as a testbed for emerging technologies and new 130mm conventional tank guns in development, as the introduction of the [[Strv 126]] has fulfilled the requirements that the Strv 131 would have otherwise been adopted to fulfill. However, it remains in active development and is being configured and adapted to suit evolving requirements. It entered limited service in 2020.
The '''Stridsvagn 131 ''' is a main battle tank developed by Landrut AB, Stahre Landsystem AB, Kolb-Blomqvist AB for the [[Acrean Armed Forces]]. A joint venture between Landrut, Stahre, and Kolb-Blomqvist, the Strv 131 program was initated from scratch rather than as a development of any other existing Acrean armoured vehicles. However, it still shares many critical parts and systems with existing vehicles. It is the first main battle tank used by Acrea to enter service with a 130mm main gun.
