It's a little known fact, but Norway does not put names on their ships. While they do use a standardized number scheme (similar to how the USN does DDG-664, for example) those numbers are not accompanied by a nameplate, but instead by a barcode. This is so, when their ships get into port, Norway can Scandinavian.

You never met anything you didn’t want to eat, fuck, or turn into a boat.

There are a lot of weird things about the ship though. It's stealthy so it didn't show up on the shipping ship's ship radar, and so...

Awful joke, not funny at all. Here have an upvote.

I'm not a ship pilot, but shouldn't the propulsion system be underwater, to, erm, propel?
Snooj
No, just the propellers. Not the system.
computerphile
Even on submarines, the system itself is usually pretty dry and surrounded by air.. Propellers usually the only thing outside the dry part..
Cat3508
It probably means that the engine room is flooded
PhailRaptor
The propeller(s) should be. The engine room should not.
theIceman2k
Nice joke
RyanOchoa
Isn't the propulsion system supposed to be under water? Is it a sailboat?
hithere42
Only the screws and some of the propeller shafts are underwater,the rest of the machinery spaces contents like the gas turbine engines arent
Kimmanrullgardin
The frigate is actually called 'Helge Ingstad'

Their Viking ancestors are rolling over in their graves.

Because their naval descendants are rolling over in their ships.

Yes. I chuckled out loudly to myself whilst I was sat in the bathroom.

Still got Swedish vikings

The frigates are built in Spain, but our Skjold class corvettes are built in Norway by proper viking boat builders. Much better ships too
snakeoilsalesman
This is why they had shallow hulls.
aPokal
They left their vikinging in Britain.

To be fair the oil tankers were much less aggressive back then.

As a dane: *laughs out loud*
yautjamorph
And to think, that we sold our oil fields to them..
Heroasteral
We didn't sell shit. That was thievery in bright daylight and every Norwegian knows it
SpaceISIS
Supposedly the freighter that collided with it didn’t even leak oil . Maybe the navy should contract with whoever builds those ships
makeSX
Not sure if it has anything to do with the fact that in scandinavia ships are required to have double hulls.
BronzeLeaguePro
Or maybe next time we build the fucking boat ourselves and not have the Spanish pull a Spanish one on us.
BeardedViking
Nobody expects the Spanish ship sinking.

Except like, Nelson and his enormous collection of seamen.
