7. Type 212

By means of creative design and technology, Germany's Type 212 submarines exhibit remarkable stealth capacity. These boats include hydrogen fuel cell AIP systems that allow long underwater operations free from snorkelling. The submarine is quite resistant to magnetic anomaly detectors since its non-magnetic steel hull greatly lowers its magnetic signature. While the combat system lets exact weapon deployment against different threats, advanced flank array sonars and electronic support measures offer better detection capabilities.
