Didn't you guys get Tot for your type 214's at a 500million $/a piece ,apart ofcourse from the classified AIP which i doubt the germans will share with the saudis for all the money in the world.They've made it pretty clear,as far as i know,that the AIP system is a national secret.
Dude, the machine is still overpriced, I suspect that the news is accurate. The Saudis aren't stupid enough to pay $16 billions for submarines designed in the 70s.
Yeah we did. First sub is expected to enter service in 2015. 6 Type 214 AIPs for 4,000,000,000 USD. That %81 of the production will be Turkish including critic systems such as C4I. While if they agree, KSA will pay 16,500,000,000 USD for 5 Type 209. See the difference. That's why we have to have our own defence industry with %100 local products.
But the Type 214 Turkey is getting will settle have lots of German technology as well right?
