Germany’s ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) has delivered to the Israel Navy the IMS Drakon submarine - the most expensive submarine ever received by Israel, German website ‘Marine Forum’ reports. IMS Drakon is the sixth submarine procured by Israel from TKMS for its 7th fleet and the biggest built in Germany since the Second World War. For submarines, Israel is completely dependent on Germany in general and TKMS in particular, and this dependence is expected to continue in the coming decade. According to international media reports, the IMS Drakon is over 70 meters long. The submarine industry is expected to be a major anchor in the German- Israeli defense relationship in the coming decades.
