DYSPEPSIA GENERATION

The National Interest.

Sweden’s Gotland-class submarines, first commissioned in the 1990s, are renowned for their stealth, maneuverability, and cutting-edge technology. Designed to operate near Sweden’s Baltic waters, these submarines use advanced Stirling engine air-independent propulsion, making them nearly silent and hard to detect.

In 2005, during a U.S. Navy wargame, a Gotland-class submarine famously “sank” a U.S. aircraft carrier, demonstrating its effectiveness. With a displacement of 1,580 tons and armed with heavyweight torpedoes and mines, these subs play a crucial role in Sweden’s maritime defense.

Now a NATO member, Sweden’s Gotland-class strengthens Western naval capabilities against Russia in the Baltic Sea.
