This "CD" (Common Design) variant of the Type 212 will consist of six submarines, with the German Navy ordering two new boats alongside the four Norwegian vessels. [1] In March 2021 an agreement was reached between Norway and Germany to initiate the acquisition program, pending approval by the Bundestag. The contract for construction of the six ...
The Type 212CD class (for Common Design) is a submarine class developed by ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) for the Norwegian and German navies.The class is derived from the Type 212 submarine class, [15] but will be significantly larger than the 212 class.
The class combines the design principles of the Type 209 submarine family and the features of the Type 212A submarine. [1] However, as an export design, it lacks some of the classified technologies of the Type 212 such as the non-magnetic steel hull that makes it difficult to detect using a magnetic anomaly detector.

Type VIIC/41 U-boat. List of U-boat types contains lists of the German U-boat types (submarine classes) used in World War I and World War II.. The anglicized word U-boat is usually only used as reference for German submarines in the two World Wars and therefore postwar submarine in the Bundesmarine and later German Navy are not included.
The customised design is oceangoing and larger than the Challenger and Archer-class submarines operated by the Singapore Navy.The design is expected to be influenced by the export Type 214 submarine or Type 216 submarine, which have been designed for the potential needs of several other navies (Australian, Canadian and Indian).
NV Ingenieurskantoor voor Scheepsbouw (IvS) was founded on 21 July 1922 and initially was led from the Germaniawerft in Kiel, Germany. [4] [5] [6] During this time the company gradually built up a team of skilled and experienced German and Dutch engineers that were led by technical director Hans Techel, the former director of U-boat design at Germaniawerft.
A German U-boat from the First World War is likely to have been sunk deliberately rather than being handed to the Allies, according to a 3D map produced by researchers.
Customised variant of the Type 214 submarine, with specific design inferences from the Type 212 submarine. [ 5 ] The Invincible -class submarines , formally classified as the Type 218SG submarines , is a class of conventionally-powered attack submarines on order by the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) from German-based naval conglomerate ...
