Defence Minister Ine Eriksen Soreide confirmed on Friday the military was gearing up in preparation for a potential conflict with Vladimir Putin as the government plans to invest in four new subs from Thyssenkrupp (TKMS).

The Nato member is expected to sign a joint contract with Germany in 2019, however, the final sum of the new war machines was not specified.

“Cooperation and joint purchasing with Germany are the best choices,” Ms Soreide said.

The navy fleet will receive the new subs, designed on the basis of a 212 model already in use in Germany and Italy, in the second half of the next decade.
