Historia
Durante el apogeo de la Guerra Fría, Noruega quería submarinos de patrulla silenciosos capaces de operar en los intrincados canales de su costa. Construidos en Alemania Occidental como una versión personalizada del submarino Type 207, quince barcos de la Kobben-class se unieron a la Armada noruega. Sus pequeños cascos y su construcción de acero no magnético los hacían difíciles de detectar por sonar y detectores magnéticos. A lo largo de la Guerra Fría, rastrearon movimientos en el mar de Noruega y protegieron rutas acuáticas estratégicas hasta que fueron retirados y reemplazados por embarcaciones modernas.
