Fincantieri launched the start of construction for the Italian Navy's first new Type 212 NFS (Near Future Submarine) at its Muggiano shipyard in La Spezia on 11 January.
Under the Type 212 NFS programme, the Italian Navy is planning to procure four new boats evolved from the service's existing Todaro (Type 212A)-class air-independent propulsion diesel-electric submarines (SSKs).
Fincantieri was awarded a contract worth EUR1.35 billion (USD1.63 billion) to build the first pair under a contract awarded [...] in February 2021. Under the agreement terms, the two submarines are expected to be delivered in 2027 and 2029.
