The ''Archer class'' submarines are the newest class of diesel-electric submarines in active service with the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN). Originally launched as the Swedish Navy ''Västergötland'' class submarines HMS ''Hälsingland'' and HMS ''Västergötland'' in 1986 and 1987, the two submarines were sold to Singapore in November 2005 and relaunched in June 2009 and October 2010 respectively after extensive modernisation by Kockums, which included a refit to ''Södermanland'' class standards, the insertion of a new hull section with an air independent propulsion system, and additional climatisation for use in tropical waters. ==History== Singapore's Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) signed an agreement with Kockums for the supply of two ''Archer'' class (formerly ''Västergötland'' class) submarines to the RSN on 4 November 2005.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Kockums )〕 More than 20 years old and previously in reserve with the Swedish Navy, the submarines will be transferred to the RSN on completion of the modernisation and conversion for operation in tropical waters. RSS ''Archer'' was launched on 16 June 2009.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Singapore Ministry of Defence )〕 RSS ''Archer'' has undergone sea trials following its launch and is now operational. The second submarine, RSS ''Swordsman'', was launched on 20 October 2010. The ''Archer'' class submarines are expected to enter service from 2010 and may replace some of the ''Challenger'' class submarines.
