Unlike many other nations that contributed to the Holocaust directly and indirectly. The Swiss were in a lowlife class of their own but their contributions to & cooperation with the Nazi war machine is out there,as is their thieving.

"Experts estimate they are have the longest cruising range of all submarines". I think that should read "Experts estimate they are have the longest cruising range of all DIESEL POWERED submarines". Nuclear powered submarines don't need to refuel and ballistic missile nuclear subs stay on patrol for many months at a time and could, in theory at least, do so for years at a time.

send it's air force to Iran, now?

Nuke submarines are actually too expensive to purchase and maintain in real-time scenario, but if Tel-Aviv can indeed maintain one it can either approach France(because that nation can supply without any preconditions to Israel in present times), or the USA(wish if Obama grants approval for the same).with a Nuke sub,Israel is omnipotent and everpowerful in the entire middle east!!

Thank you for getting that sub. Submarines serve as a great deterent and tell your enemy that even if your country is destroyed, so too will their country be destroyed. Israel must remain strong.

Don't know if these submarines will carry it but the latest German subs have a AIP or Air Independent Propulsion system that allows them to stay submerged for up to three weeks.Nuclear can stay submerged permanently but they are also limited by the amount of food they can carry.They are also more expensive and noisy.

Jane's has some good stuff on these subs. They are super silent, and most of its capabilities are under tightly woven wraps. Thank You Germany!

they have a surprisingly large and well appointed galley. incidentally kiel is not helensburgh is it? lots of laughs.

I hope the Germans stop doing business with Iran because the Iranian dictator is just like the Nazi's. They want to annihilate Israel and they hang their own people in the streets for no reason. I know economic times are tough but doing business with the Devil will always come back to bite you. Iran is no friend to the West.

continue to support Iran big with business deals...the Germans are WICKED...don't fool yourself...!

They gave license to Egypt to manufacture Abrams tanks which will be used against Israel next time.

It was G.W. Bush who first fantasized about the road map...the road to destroy Israel...

What exactly Israel is planning to do with this toy!?!?!? Dominate the seas, HAHAH!!!!!!
