The Insane Engineering Behind Spain’s Deadly S-80 Submarine

The Spanish S-80 submarine is one of the world's deadliest military vehicles. Today we are going to explore the weapons system of the S-80 Plus Class submarine, as well as the insane engineering behind this attack submarine and it's missile capabilities

[@gonbal2]

This submarine is similar to a nuclear submarine, but with less maintenance cost, less dangerous waste and also carries all kinds of weapons and tricks

[@TotemicSnorlax]

and less noisy, keep in mind you cannot turn-off the cooling from a nuclear reactor, that is a big noise vector

[@kroooassant9899]

what do you mean similar to nuclear submarines? Nuclear submarines have huge advantage they can run for very long periods, months, this sub is different you cannot compare it's made for 3 weeks missions.

[@gonbal2]

No, it's not like that. A nuclear submarine has more advantages, but the annual maintenance cost is much higher. This submarine is more discreet than a nuclear one, it can remain submerged without having to surface for 28 days or more, not bad if you have several of these, for the cost of a nuclear one.@@kroooassant9899

I hope Philippine is consider this submarine.. for PH.Navy❤️

[@joncorx2927]

Para q?

[@valentinr.dominguez2892]

Spain needs to recoup its status as a naval power.

[@thomasmeyer1408]

The S81 Isaac Peral stands as a testament to the visionary Spanish inventor who created the electric submarine with electric torpedoes - a true game changer that set a new world-class standard in its series. Navantia, the renowned Spanish shipyard, is widely recognized for its exceptional capabilities and innovative spirit, making it one of the most esteemed shipyards in the world.

[@brunol-p_g8800]

So innovative it stole the intellectual property of DCNS (now Naval Group) on the Scorpene to build this enlarged Scorpene version.

[@DiegoAlatristeytenorio]

🤣🤣🤣😂 no robo nada y no es una versión del Scorpene . Eso se dijo para que no le quitase ventas . La versión grande del Scorpene la hace Brasil incultillo

[@brunol-p_g8800]

@@DiegoAlatristeytenorio la version grande del Scorpene la hace Brazil con ayuda de Naval Group, y la versión nuclear también con ayuda francesa. En cuanto al s80, si que es un derivado del Scorpene. Y si, Nava tía ha sido perseguida por robo de propiedad intelectual. Lo que era importante para España, que sin ninguna experiencia en la construcción de submarinos no podía hacer nada, inculto.

[@JRR945]

​@@brunol-p_g8800Falso, el Scorpene es un pequeño submarino costero, el S80 tiene el doble de peso, y es un submarino oceánico, no sé en qué se pueden parecer, teniendo en cuenta que el Scorpene era también de diseño Español, y para tu información en España se fabricaban submarinos, cuando en Francia no sabían ni lo que eran.

[@TotemicSnorlax]

@@brunol-p_g8800 well, that actually was on the court and completely disregarded back in the days, it is a different ship, and it has been already proved

[@jnmorales2081]

S80 no es igual que el scorpeen. El que lo piense que no tiene ni idea de proyecto. Los objetivos de ambos submarinos son diferentes.

[@adriann2649]

The misinformation campaign is funny. Seriously, does anyone believe that the current S80 system was developed for 30 years when this technology is current? The project was proposed 30 years ago. It's different 🤣!!! But hey, we get it, France and the UK don't like this. Rest assured, Spanish geopolitics and Spanish society have not seen France or the UK as allies for a long time. We are alone vs Morocco. No problem

[@santiagoanderson9621]

Nuclear subs are faster than conventional subs, do more research please!

[@gonbal2]

That is true, no one denies it, but it is also true that maintaining a nuclear submarine is many times more expensive, and every year that waste must be placed somewhere

[@santiagoanderson9621]

Yeah but nuclear portion of the sub is maintain every 25 to 30 years. Plus nuclear technology is commercially available. Diesel engines require more maintenance than a nuclear reactor.

[@techdefined9420]

@@santiagoanderson9621 You have diesel engines aswell on nuclear subs.

[@MASC9]

​@@santiagoanderson9621The S-80 will have an AIP System.

[@The0ldboy]

@@santiagoanderson9621 What are you talking about? You confuse the useful life of the radioactive element. After 25 years the facility must be completely renovated, but that does not mean that there is a lot of periodic maintenance, but rather that the cost of this as well as the cost of the industries necessary for waste treatment is gigantic. Plus, ethanol can be manufactured by any country, even if it is banned from accessing oil or radioactive elements...which makes it a strategically very interesting fuel for a nation without natural resources.

[@MrWhiskers65]

Not likely “superior”.

[@santiagoanderson9621]

This sub is not that expensive.

[@PlvsVltra]

[@youcantata]

Deadly? I don't think so. This project is marred by various mistakes, failures, delays and cost overrun. Not failed outright but hardly up to its promise. Impressive for first try to build indigenous submarine, but rather behind latest developments in modern submarines of the world. It has a long way to go.

[@techdefined9420]

Nonsense.

[@joncorx2927]

Sé de dónde eres, o me lo puedo imaginar. La guerra electrónica del 212 alemán esa tecnología se la proporciona INDRA, entre otras por ej. De q estás hablando?? Me dices algo de la clase Astute los retraso q lleva??? Y los destructores ingleses para Australia el retraso de años q llevan por el sobrepeso y otros infinitos prblemas? tanto q quizás finiquiten el contrato y sea Navantia la q ya les construyó 3 destructores y q todos sabemos porqué los ingleses se llevaron ese contrato. Se tiran de los pelos los aussies. Los países q hacen estos programas se pueden encontrar con dificultades, los q tienen q comprar hasta un tornillo obviamente, no.

[@jorgebonetgarcia]

I think that if the new Astute class nuclear submarine has suffered weight problems and has had to call its big brother from America... not to mention the brand new Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers, which spend more time in dry dock than in the water.

It’s a 2,900 ton Dinky Toy that even the Indian Navy wouldn’t touch saying it was to small, and underpowered, for them with insufficient weapons capacity.

@@Forthewin719They are, indeed! In addition, Navantia, with the full support of the Spanish government and Armada, offered two S80 to the Philippines. The offer includes the construction of a naval base and the training of the Marines under the supervision of the Armada. Turkey is also interested in the S80, and Poland and Canada have also accepted the Navantia S80 to move upward in their submarine program candidates list.

[@miguelarranz5790]

That's why they are going to buy the u214 which is much smaller than the s80....🤦‍♂

[@Ezzkill44]

who said that ?

[@ghostindamachine]

Terrible research. Nuclear submarines, ballistic missile submarines, are highly capable, ultra stealth, and have hunter killer capabilities. And by what metrics is the S-80 'superior to' the mentioned conventional submarines? It's like telling a kids story.

[@MASC9]

Nuclear Submarines produce more noise than AIP ones.

[@The0ldboy]

Lots of movies and video games...a nuclear submarine is a launching platform for intercontinental missiles, NOTHING MORE. With a nuclear submarine you cannot carry out intelligence missions near enemy coasts with the same ease as with a small submarine designed for this, it is like comparing a truck with rocket launchers with a humbee. The function of a nuclear submarine is to stay still in the middle of the ocean waiting for a counterattack.
