🇫🇷 France has reportedly offered the Shortfin Barracuda submarine alongside another offer for the Scorpène submarine to Argentina.

Shortfin Barracuda is the same type of submarine that has been offered to the Netherlands as a replacement for their Walrus class. The Shortfin Barracuda was also the basis on which the “Attack Class” for Australia was devised upon. It is interesting that France should offer this advanced and costly submarine to Argentina while also submitting the more reasonable, but still a little over budget Scorpène class.

🇦🇷 It makes no sense for France to offer the Shortfin Barracuda as Argentina lacks the funds for it. France and Germany are both offering a High-Low option for the competition, which doesn’t make much sense given budget requirements laid out by Argentina (Germany Type 214 & Type 209/1400 and France Scorpène & Shortfin Barracuda).

🇪🇬 We believe that the Type 209/1400 that was delivered to Egypt recently should be the selection for Argentina (The Type 214 and Shortfin Barracuda far exceede the Argentine budget, with Scorpène just a tad over the planned budget).
