The Pansarvarnspjas 1110, also called the Pvpj 1110 or the Stovepipe, is a Swedish 90 millimeter recoilless gun made by Bofors that entered service in the early 1960s and was phased out of the Swedish Army in the late 1990s after 1,600 had been produced. It could be towed, mounted on various vehicles, or even fitted to a pulka sled for Arctic operations, and it fired 90x760mm HEAT rounds to an effective range of 900 meters with a muzzle velocity of 650 to 700 meters per second, weighing 120 kilograms for the barrel alone or 260 kilograms with its carriage and crewed by three. Around 300 examples were transferred to Baltic nations, and the weapon has also seen use in Ireland, the Dominican Republic, Iraq, and Ukraine.
