The Navys history goes back to around 1807.
The Navy consists as of 2012 of the Coastal squadron, the Coast guard and the academies. The coastal squadron is the Navy’s operational force at sea and on land, while the Coast guard in peacetime is the government’s primary authority at sea and the Armed Force’s most important resource for handling incidents in the Norwegian territorial waters.
The Navy's academies provide a complete naval professional education, to ensure that the personnel are qualified to use and develop the Armed Forces’ naval capacities.
Headquarters as of 2012: Haakonsvern Navy Base
