Torpedo 62

Torped 62 is the latest and most modern torpedo used in the Sjøforsvaret.

In the late 1990s, Saab Dynamics, began to develop a replacement for the older Torped 617, the main heavy torpedo used in the Kalmar Union navy. In 2001 the company was awarded a contract to complete developing of the torpedo. Scheduled to enter service in the mid 2008, different problems delayed the torpedo for several years. In 2012 the first torpedoes was delivered to the KUFLO for early testing. The first batch was delivered to the Sjøforsvaret in 2014 and was officially handed over to the Swedish Navy by early 2015.

The torpedo has a pump jet propulsion system giving it a maximum speed of over 40 knots. It can also track several targets and classify them at the same time.
