Israel uses German technology for naval operations

Israel has added German submarines to its arsenal in preparation for attacks or defence that may be necessary due to mounting tension in the region.

Israel now has four Dolphin submarine bought from Germany, and two more are on order. Industry magazine Jane’s Defence Weekly reports the submarines are nuclear-armed.

Speaking anonymously, an Israeli officer said he could not discuss exactly how the submarines would be used: “We are not allowed to talk about our operations as this is the secret of our success. If I revealed what we are planning to do in case of war, the enemy would be waiting for us and we don’t want to give them a competitive edge.”

With Iran’s 10-day naval war games in December and threats to close the vital oil-shipping Strait of Hormuz route, the timing may be right for Israel to demonstrate its sea capabilities.

Experts claim, Israel’s Dolphin submarines can hit targets 1,500 kilometres away – putting Iran within range.

What about MTCR????
One clause of MTCR is "The MTCR also undertakes outreach activities to keep non-Partners informed about the group's activities and to provide practical assistance regarding efforts to prevent the proliferation of WMD delivery systems."
Germany is a part of G-7 countries and if Israel can be benefited,,,, why shouldn't India as we have got Nuclear Sub????
Please give your comments.....

Maybe because the Israelis developed the missiles themselves?

I could be wrong myself, but the MTCR doesn't restrict what munitions are used in the concerned weapon system/vessel, it simply prevents proliferation of missile technology. If Israel developed the missile by herself, she has every right to load them onto whatever platform she wishes, however if a 3rd entity (which is a partner of the MTCR treaty) helped her to develop the missile, then that would be a clear violation as long as the missile range exceeds 300km i believe.

Then the commanders assumed that Iran has destroyed Israel and they nuke Iranians cities in retaliation.

I wish an israeli leader would come out and say this, you nazis (usa+israelites) only talk ****, Iran needs a reason to justify getting a nuke.

No disrespect and I am not questioning the ability of your country's subs, your subs will have to go out the persian gulf, round oman and yemen, up the red sea, through the suez channel to get anywhere close to Israel and her subs. The Kilos will most likely be used to patrol the Persian Gulf considering who is waiting at the other end.

Kilos are 1982 tech, Israeli Dolphins 1998 (based on 212 design).

But they are 1982 project.

Israelis have new 1998 design similar to best in the world 212 diesel subs (except AIP).

I would be very glad if Iran got the tech to defeat the german tech in Subz warfare.....

They got 3 of those subs for the price of 1.
