Norway, officially the Kingdom of Norway, is country in Scandinavia that borders Sweden, Finland, and the Soviet Union.

World War III[]

As a member of NATO, Norway was a belligerent during World War III. It hosted anti-air defenses along its northern coastline to deter Soviet bombers from flying through Scandinavia. An assault led by Orlovsky's battlegroup would destroy the air defenses and cut off Norwegian communications and support, opening up a corridor for Soviet bombers to strike against targets in Northern Britain and the Atlantic coast.[1]

NATO conducted several border raids of their own into Soviet territory from Norway. Major Johannessen of the Norwegian Rangers led several missions beyond the Russian border, and aided Task Force Raven in locating a downed prototype aircraft[2][3] and raiding a submarine naval yard near Murmansk.[4]
