The endurance varies depending on the AIP system used as well as the operating speed/dept.The Swedish Gotland class can stay under for about 15+ days at a speed of 5 knots with their ‘Sterling’ AIP,while the German Siemens fuel cell equipped AIP system can go for upto 4 weeks at slow speed.

I’m sure the Pakistani Navy is proficient as you say.

I was revering to the comparatively amateurish results of entry level terror bombers who blow themselves up on the way to a gig.
