The Swedish Royal Navy´s corvette HMS Karlstad in Öresund

The Swedish Royal Navy´s Visby class corvette HMS Karlstad K35 passed by this afternoon in high speed (about 31 knots). 




"The Visby class is the latest class of corvette to be adopted by the Swedish Navy after the Göteborg and Stockholm-class corvettes. The ship's design heavily emphasizes low visibility, radar cross-section and infrared signature. The first ship in the class is named after Visby, the main city on the island of Gotland. The class has received widespread international attention because of its capabilities as a stealth ship." (Wikipedia)
