The Royal Norwegian Navy has taken delivery of its fourth new state-of-the-art frigate, the KNM Helge Ingstad, from the Navantia shipyard in Spain.
The frigate is armed with torpedoes and a 76mm cannon, depth charges for anti-submarine warfare, evolved Sea Sparrow anti-air missiles, and the Norwegian anti-ship missile NSM.
The frigate also operates one NH90 helicopter and crew for on-board cooperation with the Norwegian Air Force.
The frigate will now undergo a six-week test before being commissioned by the Norwegian Navy.
