HMS Gotland

ABOUT
The Swedish submarine HSwMS Gotland is famous for sinking the carrier USS Reagan in exercise. Multiple times. It is still active, part of the NATO fleet. In 2020 it completed a mid generation upgrade. During the upgrade, a number of systems that will be used in the next generation submarines, the Blekinge-class (A26), was installed. Dare we call it a Super Gotland sub?

HSwMS (His Swedish Majesty's Ship) Gotland (Gtd) is a defense submarine of the Swedish Navy. It was the first ship of the Gotland-class, which was the first operational submarine class in the world to use air-independent propulsion (AIP) in the form of Stirling engines which use liquid oxygen and diesel as the propellant.

The real Swedish name is HMS Gotland but it uses HSwMS (His Swedish Majesty's Ship) internationally to not create confusion with the British Royal Navy which also uses the HMS prefix.
