Gotland Class



The Gotland Class is designed for operation in the extreme littorals of northern Europe and in the international arena. Anti-shipping operations, anti-submarine warfare missions, forward intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance as well as special operations are typical missions for this class of boat. These submarines can carry a powerful array of wire-guided and homing torpedoes, missiles and mines.

uboat 212

In cooperation with Nordseewerke in Emden, HDW developed a new submarine for the German Navy: Class 212A. A contract for the delivery of four boats was signed on 6th July 1994 and followed through by the Working Group U212. The commissioning ceremony for the two first units – German Navy submarines U31 and U32 – took place on 19th October 2005 at the German Navy submarine base in Eckernförde.

The Class 212A submarine is the first submarine in the world to be equipped with an air-independent propulsion system as standard installation. The fuel cell propulsion system transforms hydrogen and oxygen directly into electrical power without producing noise or exhaust gases and is characterised by high efficiency and low maintenance requirements. The energy conversion process leads to the production of direct current electrical power with distilled water as the only by-product. The fuel cell propulsion system enables the submerged endurance of the submarine to be very considerably increased. The high performance capabilities of this propulsion system have been proven during extensive tests and now in service in the German Navy.

uboat 209

In 1967 Howaldtswerke in Kiel signed a contract for the delivery of four Class 209 submarines to the then Royal Hellenic Navy. This contract marked the beginning of the long success story of submarines belonging to the Class 209 family. So far 63 boats of different types have been built in this class. Just the Class 209/1400mod – the youngest member of the family – now accounts for 7 boats currently being built, at the test stage or already commissioned. A common feature to all submarines of Class 209 is their pressure hull diameter, which has been approximately 6.2 m from the first to the most recent boat.

Advances in technology and increasing operational requirements made by HDW’s naval customers mean that the boats ordered and built at the end of the 1960s can of course hardly be compared with those designed and built today. The displacement of the first boats was about 1,000 t but this has now increased by up to 50% in some cases.
