Summary

Description

The Royal Norwegian Navy minesweeper KNM Lågen (M 950) fitting out at Bellingham Shipyards Company, Bellingham, Washington (USA), circa in 1954. The ship shows the U.S. Navy designation AM-498 (later MSO-498), but was built for Norway. In the background are the French minesweeper Vinh Long (M 619), right (as MSO-477), and the Portugese minesweeper NRP São Jorge (M 415), as MSO-478.

Lågen was sold to Belgium in 1966 and renamed Dufour (M903). The ship was finally scrapped in 1996.
