Was the class really called ULA? I thought the only Ula-class was produced from the 1970s and onwards. There is one Ula-class submarine called Uredd, and this is still in operation. But I think the name Uredd is a traditional Norwegian submarine nameInge 01:32, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• aha, you're right - my apologies - see, this is what happens when Canadians write about Norwegian ships :) Sherurcij 02:59, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)

It isn't easy to keep up with all the ships with the same name:) But tradition is important in the navy. I noticed the same problem in an article about HNoMS Valkyrien (1994-present) and it led to HNoMS Valkyrien. I did my service in the Royal Norwegian Navy and most of your info was unknown to me so I am impressed :) Inge 19:03, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Someting about the Uredd on RNON web pageInge 01:07, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

A couple of small corrections. The submarine P-41 was named Uredd (norwegian for fearless) and NOT HNoMS Uredd. The "HNoMS" was not used on norwegian warships and submarines before after the second world war. Uredd was not a U-class submarine as this class was first used as a term for the norwegian submarines in service aquired from the UK after the war. Norway operated 5 U-class submarines (Utstein, UIa, Utvær, Uthaug and Utsira) after the war. In addition was three K-class submarines (german VIIC submanrines from the war) operated. They were releaved by the german-produced Kobben-class (type-207) in the mid-60. Compared with the U-class boats, Uredd was a bit smaller, but quite similiar in design.
