Putin’s submarine fleet under threat as allies UK & Norway build hi-tech North Sea destroyers

NORWAY’S navy has signed a £10bn deal to buy at least five submarine-hunting ships from Britain – beating competition from the US and Europe.

The hi-tech frigates will be used to counter Russian threat in the frozen seas around Scandinavia and the Arctic Circle.

The deal was announced yesterday after The Sun revealed in June that Royal Navy chiefs were trying to broker a deal with their Norwegian counterparts to buy the Type-26 frigates.
