Comments to the Class

Former Norwegian KOBBEN Class. Purchased from the Royal Norwegian Navy and modified in Norway before the takeover.

One more sub of this class was purchased from the Royal Norwegian Navy in 1992 (the KNM KAURA) to be used as spare parts for the three sub in Danish service, mostly for the SÆLEN. - The hull was sold for scrapping later that year.

*) Command ended on November 25, 2004. Final decommissioning awaiting decision on scrapping or handing over to another nation.
