Study notes that Russia has built 10 new submarines since 1993, with five more nuclear submarines in progress; Norway has built 16 naval ships (some armed); Denmark has built 21 ships for its navy, all armed and able to sail through first-year sea ice; and US has built six nuclear-powered attack submarines with six more under construction and further 12 planned. Meanwhile Canada is planning to build up to eight Arctic patrol ships and one polar icebreaker. |
