The Scandinavians are good at long-term planning, and also aware that it will be far cheaper to defeat Russia in Ukraine than in, say, Finland or Poland in 5-10 years’ time.
Norway is a founding member of NATO and due to its geography guarding the sea passage around the northern edge of Europe against ruzzian and other navies.
Norway’s military is designed to detect a Russian invasion as soon as possible with the help of Nordic human shield allies, Sweden and Finland. On detection of an invasion force the plan is to immediately flee the country and go hang out with the Scots to drink good stuff while looking longingly across the North Sea.

Also, isn’t Norway entire military basically designed to counter Russian invasions?
Edit: Nope. I was thinking of Finland and how they keep an absurdly massive military due to previous Russian occupation.
