I was thinking to myself today about how Norway had such a reliance on sea planes to provide capability in the air due to the lack of good land for airstrips and the large amount of water. I figured, perhaps Norway may have considered having floating airstrips in its fjords, or maybe even aircraft carriers (albeit small, like escort carriers, to navigate the smaller waterways surrounding the peninsula). Would either of these be possible, or even plausible? Is it logical to think that Norway could have ordered 2 or 3 escort carriers/light carriers from the nearby UK to defend itself? Perhaps they would have bought destroyers to supplement the CVEs/CVLs? If such theoretical carriers had been built, how would this affect the German invasion of Norway in 1940 and U-boat attacks on Allied shipping to the Soviets?
