'''''' () is a Finnish military rank above () and below (). The rank was introduced in the Swedish Armed Forces in 2019. It is above and below . Both and are OR6.
==Finland== Formerly the rank was mainly used by junior officers-in-reserve (with a reserve rank of at least ) working as temporary contractual personnel. This gave them seniority over conscript sergeants or officer cadets, but subordinated them to commissioned officers (with an active service rank of or higher). However, currently it is either a reserve rank, or a rank available to professional NCOs.
