First-in-class submarine "Gotland" has been delivered to the Swedish Navy (Svenska Marinen) following a series of platform upgrades including a new AIP system and a combat system similar to the one set to be fitted aboard the next generation A26 submarine.

The Swedish Navy’s two first A26 submarines will be named HSwMS Blekinge and HSwMS Skåne, the country’s Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) said on January 15, 2019. The two submarines will be delivered to the Swedish Navy in 2024 and 2025.
