At 1400 tonnes these are light subs but the packages seems to be impressive and the total price of $1.02 billion means $255 million a pop which is great. Are these intended for littoral waters? and does the deal include ToT?

Not too light lah, as they had good range and acceptable endurance at open seas, but yes many countries using Type 209 subs are coastal or regional power like Turkey, Egypt, South Korea, and so on.

Yeah it depends on the type of propulsion system (AIP or not)
Because PNS made a deal for some subs but those are 3000 tonnes class

Shipbuilding and submarine building are very different.

I'm glad you are aware of it. I am not talking about submarine.

Well we already got chance to build this sub in Indonesia as we already preparing Submarine assembly plant, de gaussing equipment, presurrized ring equipment and so on. It just Indonesia need long time to build support industry to provide vital component like Engine, Navigation system, Radar and so on.

The thread is about submarines ... these are the machines intended for submersible tasks.

That's good. Indonesia has good aviation industry as well RAI and I remember I watched a documentary about a made in Indonesia submarine.
