POTD: Swedish Arctic Rangers In G300 6×6 – Exercise Adamant Serpent 25
The polar night occurs in the Arctic and Antarctic circles during winter when the sun remains below the horizon for over 24 hours. This prolonged darkness creates a surreal, cold atmosphere, with faint twilight at midday. Often accompanied by icy landscapes and shimmering auroras, it’s both harsh and eerily beautiful. Ask me, I should know as I spent some time there. Enter the Kulspruta 58, or the Machine Gun FN MAG in caliber 7.62x51mm, mounted on the Mercedes Benz G300 6×6. To be honest, if given the choice, I’d probably take the G300 6×6 over the FN MAG – maybe I should join another blog?

The annual exercise is used to strengthen the strategic and tactical relationship of the two forces and better enable them to respond to potential threats.
