German shipbuilder ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems Launches Two Type 218SG Submarines For Singapore

Two state-of-the-art submarines for the Republic of Singapore were launched in a festive ceremony at the thyssenkrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) shipyard in Kiel on December 13, 2022.
Impeccable and Illustrious are the second and third boats in a series of four Type 218SG submarines for the Republic of Singapore Navy.
Among the 350 guests invited to the event were German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Singapore’s Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Minister for Defence Dr. Ng Eng Hen and other high-ranking representatives of Germany and Singapore. Lady Sponsor of both vessels was Ms. Ho Ching, wife of the Prime Minister. At the push of a button, she launched both boats simultaneously, giving them the sonorous names Impeccable and Illustrious.
We can be proud that German companies like thyssenkrupp Marine Systems are leaders in the construction of submarines, Chancellor Scholz explained in his speech. Each of these submarines is a one-off with a lot of manual work and maximum precision. That is a clear signal. And I am therefore also extremely pleased that thyssenkrupp Marine Systems will expand its production in Germany and will also start production at the Wismar site from 2024.
