Abstract

On assignment from the Swedish Fortifications Agency (Fortifikationsverket), FOI has performed a risk assessment on theoretical basis, which includes a limited number of small and medium calibre munitions in the form of unexploded ordnance (UXO). The ammunition include 12.7, 13.2, 20 and 30 mm munitions, which have previously been used by the Swedish Air Force on former Swedish Armed Forces military test ranges. Residing UXO in these areas currently constitute a hazard in connection with relinquishment of the surfaces to civil society.
