Doesent Iran already have 17 diesel-electric subs?
Well is it a surprise? They are going throught their own Cold War there with Israel, which is getting it's own submarines for [B]free[/B] from Germany. And they are arming them with nuclear tipped cruise missiles. For Iran to simply stand by and watch as his not-so-friendly neightbour arms itself more and more while not doing the same is a road to destruction.
I say go for it, because I'm pretty sure Israel would go for "pre-emptive" attack if given any chance of getting away with it unscratched.

nope, but every little bit counts untill you get under the thermal layer, especially with how sensitive hydrophones are now

Can you give a source which states that they get the submarines for free?

They pay 1/3 the price and the rest Germany somehow owes Israel because of the holocaust.
