Norwegian shipyard Umoe Mandal is contracted to deliver composite structures for the 8 UK T26s.

"Under the award, the Norwegian company will build and deliver the mast structure, including sponsons, doors, hatches and internal outfitting, as well as bulwarks and life raft platforms."

It does lead me to wonder if, as part of the final agreements - governmental and commercial, other modules for the Norwegian ships (or UK replacement ones if Norway gets ones already under construction) will be contracted from Norwegian yards.
