at DSA 2024 in Malaysia. Both share the same hull, which is electrically driven and has a noise level of <140dB.

UUV300CB is equipped with satellite communication, UHF, and an optronic periscope that enables target detection, identification, surveillance. It can also deploy mines or small UUVs. UUV300CD features two torpedo tubes. Both variants apparently has a VLS for launching small missiles.

Length: 11.5m
Diameter: 1.6m
Top speed: 12 knots
Operating depth: 300m
Range: 450nm at 5 knots

This is very interesting.
Now, a smaller country can get submarine capability with potentially smaller commitment than in the past.
I do wonder what the endurance is for something like this
Also, a purely electric driven UUV should be pretty quiet. I'd assume it's quite a bit less noisy than 140dB
