About FS «Eger»
Eger (Marjata for most of its career) is a purpose-built electronic intelligence collection vessel (ELINT). She is the third ship that bears the name Marjata; the first was operational in the period of 1966-1975 and the second during the years 1976–1995. All of these ships have been used for military intelligence purposes by the Norwegian Armed Forces, the first two entering service during the Cold War. She is owned by the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment, but operated by the Norwegian Intelligence Service, and is considered to be one of the most advanced ships of her kind in the world. Her main role is surveillance of the Russian Northern fleet's activity in the Barents Sea, but is constructed for operations all over the world. She operates in international waters close to the Russian border. Marjata officially serves as a research ship for the Norwegian Intelligence Service.
