U-31 is the older and smaller 212A class submarine. Probable not much to look at compared to the KSS-III batch ll he toured in Korea. Hard to compare apples to apples when one company has an already built product and the other has to show you an older model not even under consideration for our needs.
TKMS will benefit from the current evaluation criteria in this regard. Sustainment is their strong suit in these kinds of competitions. Although as I have said before, you can't discount the emotional impact of being able to walk around and experience the platform being offered. Its something I've said is one of Hanwha’s big advantages here.
