Croickey, take it easy. ;)
I'm by far no expert on subs, but I see no alarming faults with it. I think it's very big(yes I know there were several subs during WW2 of similar size, and some greater), but this is mostly from my point of view.

For comparison, this is the preceeding class of ocean going submarine:

I have made the first, or should I say the last class of nuclear powered submarine(s) for Norseland. The sub is named Svarti Dauthi class. (Svarti Dauthi means black death.) The name comes from it`s dark hull and it`s mission; to mersylessly hunt down anything and everything the Soviet navy has and destroy it. The combination of speed, firepower and stealth is only comparable or surpassed by the Seawolf. The subs are greatly appreciated by NATO and the name alone will make any Soviet officer feel the chills, the sight of one would make them fear for their safety. With a 40 kts top speed and 12 torpedo tubes with space up to 50-60 torpedoes and SSMs the sub is deffinetly a cold blooded killer that will never stop until the hunter is dead, or the hunted is dead.

I thought I`d give Norseland some tanks. The first in line is the backbone of the Norse WWII tank force; the Skrithdreka SkD-3. It was the first Norse medium tank to be armed with a 75mm gun. The tank was reasonable fast, the tank was a little to heavy relative to the engine power. It was more than a match for the Pz III and Pz IV but was inadequate against the Panther and the Tiger. An improved version was given a much more powerful engine and a high velocity, long barreled 75mm gun in 1943 to keep up with tank development and keep the SkD-3 as a frontline tank.

Very nice additions.
One thing about the tank - I'd say that the tracks in such configurationw would need those small rollers along the upper line of track (look closely on Pz.III or Pz.IV for example).

Then comes the time when a successor is built. In this case that is the Strithdrekar 4. Built to match the Patner and the T-34-85.

Now I`ll move other to producing some heavies.

The first heavy tank was a pure experimental tank.

The first to be put into service was the SkDT 2. It was armed with a 90mm gun and was slightly less armored than the Tiger. Anticipating the arrivel of the Losif Stalin tank, the tank was given a new turret, and a new 105mm gun that hopefully would with new ammo pierce the new tanks. The armor was also increased. The SkDT 2 and the IS never met at the battlefield as most, if not all of the IS were sent to fight Germany.

Very nice drawings. I would just maybe suggest to add bit elements on this "rounded" turret of SkDT-2 (like optical devices etc.) as now it's bit bare.

The last true heavy tank of Norseland. Armed with an 105mm gun and had sloped armor. The tank was fielded in the closing stages of 1944 and was not employed in force until early 1945. Early reports were good. The tank was more than enough for Panthers and Tigers of all models. The tanks was updated in 1953 with a new turret, a 120mm gun. A new engine was installed and new thicker, and modern armor was employed in the updated design. This necessitated a redesign hull with the same transmission. The tank suffered from slight moblity problems, using the same engine as the SkDT-2, but wighting 1/3 more.
