Comment: This submarine is the result of a joint program developed by Germany and Norway´s navies, and known as Project 210 in Germany. It is by far the most expensive project that Norway´s Navy has ever decided to develop. The construction of the units has been done at Thyssen facilities, but some presurized sections have been arriving from Norway and assembled there later.
