The '''''Näcken''-class submarines''', also known as the A14 type, were built for the ] in the late 1970s. The boats were authorised in 1972 and completed between 1980 and 1981. All boats were built by ] in Karlskrona. The boats had a teardrop hull and diving depth was {{convert|150|m|ft}}. Between 1987 and 1988, ''Näcken'' and her sister ships were cut in half and an {{convert|8|m|ft|adj=on}} long hull section containing a prototype ] (AIP) using a closed cycle ] was installed between the aft battery/propulsion & power control room and the engine/motor room. This technology increased underwater endurance to 14 days and has been adopted in subsequent Swedish submarines. |
