UK, Norway unite navies against Russian subs

UK, Norway unite navies against Russian subs

Britain and Norway signed the groundbreaking Lunna House Agreement on December 4, 2025, creating a joint naval fleet of at least 13 Type-26 frigates to hunt Russian submarines and protect critical undersea infrastructure in the North Atlantic. The pact builds on a £10 billion frigate deal and responds to a 30% increase in Russian vessels in UK waters over two years, with both nations operating warships interchangeably along NATO's northern flank between Greenland, Iceland and the UK.
