Pansarbandvagn 301 (pbv 301), meaning roughly armoured tracked carrier vehicle 301, was a Swedish infantry fighting vehicle (Swedish: pansarskyttefordon) used by the Swedish Army. It was designed to carry a squad of 8 fully armed mechanized infantrymen (Swedish: pansarskyttesoldater) into battle and provide direct-fire support for them in combat. The infantrymen could opt to either fight from inside the vehicle through hatches on the roof or dismount the vehicle and fight in its vicinity. The pbv 301 was armed with a Bofors 20 mm belt-fed gun taken from scrapped Saab 21 fighter aircraft.
