Israel Receives New Dolphin-Class Submarine 'INS Drakon'
The Israeli Navy has received its sixth Dolphin-class submarine, the INS Drakon, in a ceremony this week. Acquired from Germany at an estimated cost of $2 billion, the INS Drakon is now considered Israel's most expensive military asset. News 13 reporters were granted exclusive access to the interior of the advanced submarine.
The INS Drakon is equipped with cruise missiles and is believed to be capable of carrying nuclear warheads, significantly enhancing Israel's strategic deterrent capabilities. The submarine's acquisition is part of a broader naval expansion aimed at maintaining Israel's qualitative military edge in the region.
