Israel gets discount on german subs and I guess the decision makers decided it's not worthy to produce Israeli made subs

 

[KN-1]

Why wo


Why world not see it as a threat why NKorea missiles and nukes are threat

If israel dont have nukes why keep nuke sub

We just got nukes in 80s whole world cried over it


Hope PN and its thinktank should be changed with new energetic and innovative leadership should come and bring new ideas projects for PN

Currently most of PN officers living in 80s ers

In April 2015, Pakistan approved purchase of 8 S20 class from China for $5 billion for Pakistan Navy. The deal was finalised on 23 july 2015.[12][13] In October of the same year, it was revealed that 4 of the submarines will be built in Pakistan, with work beginning in both nations simultaneously. Pakistan's Minister for Defense Production confirmed that the agreement included transfer-of-technology to construct the vessels.[14] On 6 July 2015 Rana Tanveer Hussain, minister of defence production announced two projects for the construction of four submarines in China and four in Pakistan will begin simultaneously. Hussain added that a training centre will also be created at KSEW.

these subs can fire Nuclear capable cruise missiles... and it is believed that agosta 90b's can also fire babur SLCM..

Also contrary to local reports, the planning officer said the IDF has not yet decided whether to retire its first Dolphin submarine and some of its older surface ships once a sixth Dolphin submarine and new Sa'ar-6-class ships are delivered in the 2019-2020 timeframe.

sixth Dolphin submarine is deterrence to any navy.
israel also order 4 new Sa'ar-6-class ships with barak 8.

When the sixth submarine will arrive Israel, IDF will stop the activities of it's oldest submarine, so the total number of Israeli submarines will remain on 5.

Why only 5? Israel should maintain a sub fleet of 10 or more, at least.

Next submarine to be named after sunken Dakar
The next submarine to join Israel’s fleet will be named the INS Dakar (Grouper), naval chief Ram Rothberg tells the Haifa ceremony, after an Israeli submarine that sank in the Mediterranean in 1968.

The Dakar was en route from Scotland to Israel when it sank with 69 Israeli sailors aboard. It was only found in 1999, between Crete and Cyprus.

The episode remains a deeply painful one for the state, as well as a mystery, with a conclusive theory on why it sank never set.

A number of memorials for the sub exist around the country, as well as streets named after it.


The Israel Navy’s Dakar (IDF Spokesperson’s Unit)

The new sub, slated to arrive in Israel from Germany next year, will also be fitted with a memorial to the soldiers.

Why only 5? Israel should maintain a sub fleet of 10 or more, at least.

Israel doesn't need a really large fleet of submarine, Israel prefer to have a small but sophisticated navy, that will accomplish it's assignments and act as a deterrent.
Those submarines also serve as part of Israel's doctrine for the second nuclear strike capability
