Default Re: Soviet invasion of Norway 1963

Keep in mind it's 1963 so helicopters, especially attack helicopters, are in their infancy. And for the most part ATGMs are still on the drawing board.

While the US Navy may operate out of Vardo now they probably didn't in 1963 as the Norwegians were being VERY careful not to allow any foreign basing, or even training exercises in Finnmark.
