The Type 209 is a class of diesel-electric attack submarine developed exclusively for export by Howaldtswerke-Deutsche Werft of Germany. The original variant (Type 209/1100) was designed in the late 1960s. Despite not being operated by the German Navy, five variants of the class (209/1100, 209/1200, 209/1300, 209/1400 and 209/1500) have been successfully exported to 13 countries, with 61 submarines being built and commissioned between 1971 and 2008. The 1100 - 1200 variants are operated by the navies of Argentina, Greece, Colombia, Peru, South Korea and Turkey. This model was converted from Electronic Arts´ game Sub Command to Sketchup by Heteroman. #Diesel #Electric #Marine #Maritime #Navy #Ships #Submarines #Submersibles #Subs
