'''HNoMS ''Tyr''''' was a mine control vessel used for underwater search and recovery by the [[Royal Norwegian Navy]]. It was decommissioned in 2014 and sold to private owners.


==History==
KNM Tyr is used for underwater search and recovery.
''Tyr'' was built at [[Voldnes Skipsverft]] in 1981 and was used as an offshore standby-ship in the [[North Sea]] under the name MS ''Standby Master'', yard number 31. The Royal Norwegian Navy took her over in December 1993, and ''Tyr'' went through a comprehensive rebuilding and modernization program between 1994 and February 1995 at the [[Mjellem & Karlsen]] shipyard in [[Bergen]]. Under the rebuilding ''Tyr'' was equipped with new [[Bow thruster|thrusters]], the bridge was expanded and a [[Naval mine|mine]] hangar was built on the aft-deck, and new hydraulic equipment was installed on the work-deck. ''Tyr'' was fitted with tactical systems, and was equipped with a [[Scorpio ROV|Scorpio]] [[Remotely operated underwater vehicle|ROV]]. The furnishings were also modernized.{{citation needed|date=May 2014}}

History

[edit]

Tyr was built at Voldnes Skipsverft in 1981 and was used as an offshore standby-ship in the North Sea under the name MS Standby Master, yard number 31. The Royal Norwegian Navy took her over in December 1993, and Tyr went through a comprehensive rebuilding and modernization program between 1994 and February 1995 at the Mjellem & Karlsen shipyard in Bergen. Under the rebuilding Tyr was equipped with new thrusters, the bridge was expanded and a mine hangar was built on the aft-deck, and new hydraulic equipment was installed on the work-deck. Tyr was fitted with tactical systems, and was equipped with a Scorpio ROV. The furnishings were also modernized.[citation needed]

In 2014, Tyr was put up for sale by the Norwegian Armed Forces, with an estimated price of 15-20 million kr.[1]

Sold to Idefix Danmark ApS, Hobro. Renamed IDEFIX, August 2014.[2]
