According to reporters from the SVT television channel, Sweden’s military leadership plans to boost its capabilities by acquiring long-range missiles with a range of up to 2,000 kilometers, capable of striking targets deep inside Russian territory.

In an interview with SVT, Chief of the General Staff Karl-Johan Edström said this type of weapon could be used against targets in Russia if, as it is framed, there were a «Russian attack on NATO». He explained that potential targets could include a wide spectrum of sites — from command and control systems and sensors to critically important infrastructure.

Journalists, citing a press release from the Swedish Armed Forces, also reported that Stockholm has outlined several key priorities: maintaining long-term control over the waters of the Baltic Sea, strengthening air and missile defense across the entire NATO area of operations, and building a reliable logistics network.
