This quote from Dag Rune Nilsen provides a small insight into the NM-130’s use: “I never required assistance myself (pure luck!) Brigade South and 12th Brigade were also mechanised, but were formed from reservists. Cap used by Norwegian army in cold war. These were the Ausführung F/8 and the Ausführung G. There were only minor differences between the two, with the Ausf. This consisted of layers of moss and peat, with shrubbery applied over the top. This kept Finland’s StuG fleet in operation well into the 1960s. There were 56 battalions of infantry, 5 companies of cyclists (skiers), 3 regiments of cavalry (16 squadrons), 27 four-gun field batteries, 3 batteries of mountain artillery, 9 batteries of heavy artillery, and 1 regiment and 2 battalions of engineers. In 1994, Norway became the first export customer of the Swedish CV90 Infantry Fighting Vehicle. In 1945, Norway began to receive aid under the US-led ‘MAP’. Available at modellnorge.no (Flash player required). It wasn’t until November 2007 that the first Fort Bjørnåsen Panzers (Fgst.Nr 74352, 66158, 76219) began to be excavated, with a second two being uncovered in August 2007. It would serve the Norwegian Army well into the late 1990s. 20 Panzer IIIs, 1 StuG, 10 Maybach engines, and a pile of spare parts were sold to Finland. Numerous other upgrades were incorporated into the NM-116. 40 itself saw no further action and was disbanded on June 10th, 1943. WW2 British biscuit container. This was not too big of an issue as the increased torque gave it the power to navigate Norway’s tough terrain. Norway received its first Chaffees from the US under the ‘MAP’ in 1946. At least two NM-130s were part of this Brigade. We'll assume you're ok with this, but you can opt-out if you wish. When not in use, the turrets were covered with a camouflaged metal ‘shed’ to keep them concealed. Was the period of conflict, tension and competition between the United States and the Soviet Union and their allies from the mid-1940s until the early 1990s. Its gun simply did not have the penetrative power to combat modern armored fighting vehicles. From 1946 until the early 1950s, Norway received a total of 125 M24s. This allowed the vehicle to tow vehicles behind it. Only around 25 of the Panzers IIIs were in operable condition. In 1949, Norway and the West became an even more united front. The last use of the Chaffee came in 2002, when it featured in a rather risqué Norwegian commercial for mineral water. 2nd Lieutenant Dag Rune Nilsen, Former NM-116 Commander, retired In event of war, each division would mobilize 2 or 3 regiments of infantry (of 3 battalions), 3 or 4 squadrons of cavalry, a battalion of field artillery (of 3 batteries), a battalion of heavy artillery, a sapper company, a telegraph company, a medical company and a company of train. The vehicle would enter service under that designation in 1975. The tanks were initially equipped with the original US T85E1 rubber chevron tracks. The NM-116 was a successful conversion, but by the end of the Cold War in the early 1990s, the tank was becoming obsolete. Sola, located on Norway’s south-eastern coast, was an important link with the western Allies. At some point, the NM-130 also received the same sprocket upgrade as the NM-116. In 1948, with the perceived threat from the USSR, the Norwegian Military decided that it was crucial to keep its major air bases protected. Much like the dozer blade (No:bulldozerblad) found on the American M88 ARV, the NM-130’s dozer blade performed three main roles: light earthmoving operations/obstacle clearance, support during lifting operations, and anchorage when winching. There are also personnel in the special services where other uniforms are required. This, however, was not their intended role. Afterwards they passed to the landatorm, in which they remained until they have attained 55 years of age. F/8. Unfortunately, much like the NM-116, details of the Bergepanser’s time in service are scarce. The ex-Wehrmacht Panzers and StuGs, which were renamed Stridsvogn KW-III and Stormkanon KW-III respectively, filled this role until the early 1950s, when they started to be replaced by an increasing number of M24 Chaffees donated by the United States. modellnorge.no The M24s gave the Norwegian Army (Hæren) excellent service for many years, until the late-1960s. But Norwegian defence forces, special forces, navy, army, airforce and iteligence operatives were all involved in the Cold War, keeping an active eye on the Soviet Union and activities . The Chaffee would give the Norwegian Army (Hæren) their first taste of operating a relatively modern armored vehicle, having not had a tank to operate since the single L-120 ‘Rikstanken’ of the late 1930s. Dag Rune Nilsen, ex-commander of an NM-116 from Panserverneskadron, Brigade Nord (PvEsk/N, Eng: “Tank Squadron, Northern Brigade”), describes here the working relationship with the NM-130 and its crew: “The NM-130 crew was an important part of the Panserverneskadron. The new sprocket wheel had smaller and fewer teeth. The crane (No: kran) chosen for the Bergepanser was the BK710MIL made by Moelven-Brug A/S – now known as CHSnor. Another tank can be found in the Musée des Blindés, France. The Norwegian military wanted more punch but understood that the small chassis of the M24 probably wouldn’t stand up to the punishment of the recoil force produced by a large 90 mm (3.5 in) – or larger – gun. In addition to the Norwegian Campaign, Norwegian soldiers joined the Norwegian resistance movement after German forces occupied Norway. In the early 18th century the Swedes invaded Norway yet again, and this time the Norwegian army held its own, setting the stage for nearly a century of peace – the longest yet in modern Norwegian history – during which a distinct Norwegian identity began to take root. A hydraulically driven winch was mounted at the base of the crane boom. Further upgrades included the installation of equipment racks on the rear of the turret. The battalion also provides maintenance services. The Army is the oldest of the service branches, established as a modern military organization in 1628. To support the new NM-116, it was also decided that a new Armored Recovery Vehicle (ARV), or ‘Bergepanser’, be developed. Most of the time we managed to do self-recovery through various tricks but the NM-130 could always be counted on. The D/925 was capable of firing three ammunition types: High-Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT, Nor: Hulladingsgranat M62), High-Explosive (HE, Nor: Sprenggranat MF1) and Smoke (Nor: Røykgranat MF1). M hull with a redesigned (and widened) superstructure. By 1807, Denmark-Norway was formally at war with Britain. F/8s were operated in Norway during the War by Panzerjäger-Abteilungen 14, 14th Luftwaffen-Felddivision, so this may be where at least 4 came from. From a small warehouse taking wholesale orders to now operating two retail stores (Auckland and Christchurch) and a busy website serving New Zealand and the world. Translation for 'cold war' in the free English-Norwegian dictionary and many other Norwegian translations. For winter, they were covered in a rough white-wash haphazardly lashed on by hand. The one featured in most of the photos used in this article was located – until recently – at the Rena Army Camp, eastern Norway. The heat exchanger for the transmission and differential were installed in the engine compartment, while the exchanger for the additional gearbox was incorporated into an existing radiator. In April 1949, the North Atlantic Treaty was signed and NATO was born, resulting in the United States prolonging its Military Aid Programs. Military equipment is traditionally excellent stuff; it combines durability with very affordable prices. The original had 13 teeth while the newer one had 12. To augment the ambush tactics used with the NM-116, the vehicles would be covered in ‘live’ camouflage. The men were called out at 21, and for the first 12 years belonged to the line ; then for 12 years to the landvarn. Patrick Maguire, Red Box Reporter. However, despite the escalating hostilities throughout Europe in 1939 and 1940, the Norwegian government at the time failed to mobilize; leaving the Army wholly unprepared for the German invasion of April 1940. The US firm of NAPCO Industries Incorporated – a producer of military vehicles – were impressed with the Norwegian upgrade program. The engine, transmission, driveshaft and other components housed in the hull were completely removed. Not many unmodified Norwegian Chaffees remain, however, there are a few. The Intelligence Battalion is responsible for the intelligence-support to military operations. G and Ausf. In Norwegian service, these were called Stridsvogn KW-III and Stormkanon KW-III, respectively. What effect these vehicles could have had on Soviet Tanks is debatable. It was powered by a 12-cylinder Maybach HL 120 TRM 300 PS, producing 296 hp. The muzzle of the barrel was equipped with a single baffle muzzle brake to further reduce the force of recoil. The upgraded Chaffee went from being a light tank, to a tank destroyer, hence ‘Panserjager’. The engine gave the tank more power, as it produced 260 hp, but slowed the tank down to a top speed of 47 km/h (29 mph). For this, their turrets were removed and placed on concrete plinths. For this, four Chaffees were separated from the NM-116 project. The line was organized in 6 divisions of all arms, besides which there was the garrison artillery. The ‘Military Aid Program’ benefited the war-ravaged countries of the Second World War by providing them the means to rebuild their military and defenses. The majority of the Stridsvogn and Stormkanon KW-III fleet was retired by 1953. It was also light at just 20.25 tons (18.37 tonnes). At this time, however, Norway only had 17 Chaffees to its name, and the Army was not going to allocate its only ‘modern’ tank to guard duty. Provision was also made for the installation of passive-night vision/infrared sights for the commander, gunner and driver positions. An upgrade program began in the late-1960s, with the first prototype of what would be designated the ‘NM-116’ being unveiled in 1973. In the early years of the Cold War, the Norwegian Military (Forsvaret, Eng: “The Defence”) was happy with the M24 Chaffee, as it fitted its needs. Subsequent training consisted of 80 days in the second, third and seventh years of service. Ds were sent from Germany. The unit remained in this form until the end of the war. Understanding fully that the Panzers and StuGs – now renamed the Stridsvogn KW-III and Stormkanon KW-III, respectively – were all but obsolete at this point, they were not going to field them as front line tanks, but rather keep them as defensive vehicles. German was dumped as the official language of command in 1772, in favour of “Dano-Norwegian”. Also, while the NM-116 kept just two of the original four shock absorbers, the NM-130 kept three, with two at the front, and one at the rear. The Chaffee rolled on 5 roadwheels attached to a torsion bar suspension.
