Thacker) Organization: Dep. of Info.Proc, Umea Univ., Sweden Lines: 20 Approved: military@att.att.com From: dvlssd@cs.umu.se (Stefan Skoglund) The base-bled design was invited by some guys at FOA ( the Swedish Defense Research Organisation ) in the 60's. They patented it then. Later on the patent was sold to a Belgian Firm. The Belges sold a manufacturing license to a Canadian firm which then sold the same license to Armscor in SAF. Puhh. Now we come to one another thing : How has the Red Khmers gotten Swedish Carl Gustaf RR and ammo manufactured by FFV ( The Swedish Arm Manufacturing Company ). Through the US or Singapore ? Not China. dvlssd@cs.umu.se, Stefan Skoglund I Tel +46 90 19 65 29 Ume, Sweden I
