HSwMS Carlskrona (in Swedish: HMS Carlskrona ) is the longest vessel in the Swedish Navy at 105.7 metres (346 ft 9 in). Only Belos , the submarine rescue vessel, has a greater displacement. She was originally designed as a minelayer and is also used for exercise expeditions. She replaced HSwMS Älvsnabben in both roles.
Both the 57 mm guns were removed. The aft gun was removed when the helicopter pad was expanded and the forward gun was removed in 2007 as it was of an older type that was no longer used on any other ships in the Swedish Navy.
