Italian Navy has received the fourth and last of Type 212A-class diesel-electric submarines from Fincantieri on 11 May. Romeo Romei (S 529) features some enhancements over the platforms of the class. The submarine received Atlas Elektronik's electro-acoustic suite update, Cassidian's OMS100 search periscope, Hensoldt's SERO 400 attack periscopes, Kongsberg's MSI-90U Mk 2 weapon-control system and the WASS Black Shark Advanced (NSP/BSA) heavyweight torpedo. Italy is reportedly planning to acquire additional submarines.
