What exactly is Sweden's unsinkable aircraft carrier? Is it a new superweapon? Is it the follow-up to the JAS 39 Gripen, but at sea? Not quite... It refers to Sweden's biggest island, Gotland, and its strategic location in the middle of the Baltic Sea.

Gotland has been extremely important for Northern Europe for hundreds of years. First as an economic centre for commerce, and later as a naval base. But times change, and these days it's valuable as a permanent base in the Baltic Sea, from which you can launch fighters and submarines, and coastal artillery.

In this video I dive into the history of Gotland, as well as its potential future. I discuss what might happen in case of war, and I'm also talking about what Sweden is doing to protect this very significant strategic location.

Join me as I visit Gotland, Sweden's biggest island - or, as some call it, Sweden's unsinkable aircraft carrier!
