i know you found the article on the web and if it's on the web, it must be truth.:haha:
however, the only Swedish aircraft carrier that was ever identified, by anyone, is Gotland, and it is an island.:doh:

https://www.quora.com/How-many-aircr...es-Sweden-have

the photo at the kristoffer's universe looks remarkably like a Nimitz-class carrier from the Cold War era.
one can see the A-6's and F-14's parked on the flight deck.
:salute:

The Connie, huh? i missed that detail, however i could not possibly miss the distinctive US-design of the flight deck as well as the parked aircraft. no one but the US flies (or flew) A-6's.
