Germany set to sell Israel [more] submarines
New reports say Israel is planning to establish a deep-sea navy and is negotiating with Germany over the purchase warships and submarines. According to a report published by United Press International, Germany will supply Israel with three more Dolphin class attack submarines, several warships, and possibly two MEKO A-100 corvettes. The MEKO variant sought by the Tel Aviv regime costs an estimated $300 million. The warship, with a range of 4,635 miles, can carry one medium-size helicopter and 24 weapons systems — 16 ship-to-shore and eight anti-ship missile launchers adapted to US weapons as well as air-defense missiles and automatic cannon. Citing an unnamed Israeli source, the UPI report said that the Israeli navy would like even more Dolphins.
