Japanese uniform for a colonel at the general staff.

It belonged to the military attaché to the Japanese embassy in Stockholm during WW2, Makoto Onodera. After the war he was called upon to surrender his sword to the American embassy. He refused, and instead gave it and his uniform to the Army Museum.

The purple piece of fabric is a bag for storing the sword. The flower-decorated bit is a woman's sash, which belogned to Yuriko Onodera. She helped her husband's intelligence gathering, for example by deciphering messages. She hid code books in the sash.

7.5cm tracer shell m/1939

24mm armoured tracer projectile* m/1949, sabot calibre 40mm.

50mm armoured tracer projectile m/1949. Sabot calibre not mentioned, I'd guess 80mm.

HEAT shell, seems I missed photographing the sign for it.


*This being the museums translation of spårljuspansarprojektil. I'm not sure it's a good one, they've certainly fucked up elsewhere. "Armoured" here ids, as you can probably guess despite the grammar claiming otherwise, that it's to be used against armour, not that the projectile itself is armoured.

USSR IDA-71 rebreather.

This particular unit appears to have gotten legs and walked off when the USSR shrank down to Russia. It was confiscated by Swedish police when a plot to kidnap Peter Wallenberg came to light in 1993.

The "barrel bouquet" is a ribaldequin, a burst fire weapon.

Below that is a cannon-launched fire arrow. The large lump would contain some incendiary mixture, probably mostly sulphur with a bit of saltpetre and little charcoal.

Specifically it was for machinegunners who were in more vulnerable positions, this armor would stop and deflect pistol bullets up close and rifle bullets from far away.

There was also an attachment plate for the helmet to give even more head protection.
Heavy stuff, though it was really not intended for someone who was on the mobile, it did get used in trench raids sometimes.

Pansarprojektil isn't incorrect.
I've heard Estocs being described as "pansarvärja", which would roughly mean "armor piercing rapier"

>Pansarprojektil isn't incorrect.

It's the museum's choice of English term/translation that I'm a bit sceptical about, not the Swedish term, being Swedish ammo that bit is just the army's official designation.

>>30646257
Oh yeah, a lot of that stuff looks really weird in English.

Like, an RPG can be called a "Pansarskott", but you wouldn't translate it to "armored shot" because it'd be nonsense.

That's how they originally came, the collapsing stock was developed later.

There also exist a few with a solid plastic variant of this stock (which I like the most)
