You don't buy any, you don't build any, not for military use anyway.

Germany, Spain, Australia, Japan, Sweden?, Russia?, China?, India? France? That's off the top of my head. US builds only nuclear.

The submarine exporting nations are Germany, Russia and France.

Sweden tried it once but the Collins-class is still a financial disaster. Price is about twice as high as a European design and maintenance costs are exploding.

Spain tries to build the S-80. India is importing Russian submarines. Just Japan and China build indigenous submarines.
