Article Abstract:
The centerpiece of the Pakistan Navy's modernization program is the acquisition of three new Agosta 90B submarines from DCN International. Designed to boost the service's deterrent potential, the submarines build on the navy's experience with the Agosta 70. A technology transfer provision will help Pakistan attain its aspiration of developing an indigenous naval shipbuilding industry.
