Description
A new French submarine is inaugurated at the Itaguai naval base by the Brazilian navy, as part of the Franco-Brazilian strategic defense cooperation agreement signed in 2008.
The Scorpene-class Humaita submarine, equipped with heavy torpedoes and missiles, is over 70 meters long and weighs more than two tons.
It is the second conventionally-powered submarine to be commissioned by the Brazilian Navy, which is responsible for their construction at the Itaguai site. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
