Ye my mistake, old news said 3 but 3rd was for diff class. There was still the unable to submerge issue though after purchase.
Eitherway this stance was from a ranked officer during his interview on the LCS audit, he said the purchasing of the Scorpene was a shitshow too. I'm just parroting it back.

As someone that have a friend in the maiden Scorpene team in France it is infuriating that in 2025 still got ppl believe the ‘cannot dive story’
What happened is that during the first few test of the Scorpene they decided NOT to dive as per recommendation by the French team as they still getting used to it ..but then during real sub operations later and during the voyage back home they totally have no issue diving
This ‘cannot dive’ blown up by the opposition especially LGE and the Navy even invited him and few opposition members to dive with the Scorpene to dispel the myth and LGE admitted he is wrong and blame ‘wrong information’ for his earlier faulty view
But here we are.. still got ppl believe this story until now
