That's weird, I always assumed Viking Marine would be a Swedish themed school. On the grounds that the nation had a fairly large tank industry during that era, as well as that in 1940 the Royal Norwegian army had only one tank in use... from Sweden.
A good amount of volunteers from Sweden fought on Finland's side, strictly unofficially, but as far as I know, they didn't bring tanks with them (they did bring airplanes, but Strike Witches never put that to use).

The volunteers didn't bring armor with them, but Sweden did sell the Finns much needed modern equipment during the wars against the USSR, most notably the L-62 SPAA.
Why does Oorai seem to be a mishmash group? I do wish that another school would be the same thing.

Sweden was neutral during the war though.
Well if you saw the World of Tanks, Sweden was preparing in case German attack them too. They had the tanks to back up that but never seen the war except security when a new threat appears.
What's really sad are the "Waffle" and "Yogurt" ones. Because, you know, we couldn't bother looking up anything relevant to those nations and their actual role in WW2.

There is a designated Senshado school for Sweden and it called Viggen High School

I wish there was more to Viggen more than just Vikings. Instead of the Tank uniforms used by the Swedish armored crew there's only Viking clothes. There's only STRV M42 tanks too, would be cool to see the STRV M/40, SAV M/43, maybe even that tank with wheels could be seen.
