SMALL LONG-RANGE SUBMARINE DESIGN WITH CCD PROPULSION

The German submarine builder Thyssen Nordseewerke has designed the TR 300, a 35m submarine employing the TNSW/CDSS closed cycle diesel propulsion system to give air-independent (AIP) submerged cruising range of 1,350m. This is a compact 450t boat for coastal and shallow water operation, particularly optimised for warm waters. The AIP system will allow mast exposure to be minimised. A profile drawing of the submarine is given.
