A couple of points--what are the sensors like on this sub? I assume it has some sort of passive sonar as its primary detection, but how good are its operators? Does it have radar while on the surface? If it uses active radar at all, the US could detect it.

Sweden has a modern high-tech navy staffed with highly trained personnel. Their quality is at least as good as our own.

I’m not worried about the Swedes, I’m worried about some 18 year-old jihadist, volunteering for a suicide mission. Could they be trained to use the sensor, navigation, and advanced weaponry? Possibly, but it’s a tall order.
