The Swedes have one of the best militaries in the world with some of the
best weapons the vast majority of which are entirely home grown.

Saabs Draken, Viggen & Grippen have all lead the world as fighter
aircraft, their S-tank, a number of other AFV'es & bofors artillery
have lead the world in AFV'es & Artillery & as for their stealth
corvettes & stirling closed cycle heat engine submarines....well they
are holes in the water.

The have kept their neutrality & have been invasion free right through
WW 1 & 2, the Cold War etc.

But hey if you want to count them as dweebs go ahead & be as wrong as
you are in the rest of your statement.
