Conventional submarines were extremely important for maritime security and strategic deterrence during the Cold War. Amid growing geopolitical tensions, they are now experiencing a renaissance in global fleet planning. Stefan Ulsamer, editor of the trade magazine Navy-Ops, offers a comprehensive overview of the world's active conventional submarines: from the modern diesel-electric submarines of the German 212A class to the latest developments in the Russian 636 fleet and the fleets of smaller nations. Includes a chapter on conventional submarines in films.
