The Agosta-class submarine is actually two related class of diesel-electric and fast attack submarine developed and constructed by France's DCNS to succeed the Daphné-class submarines. The French Navy grouped this model of submarine in their most capable class as an océanique, meaning "ocean-going." The Agosta–70 are in the active service with the Spanish Navy, Pakistan Navy, and formerly by the French Navy when they commissioned the Scorpène-class submarines.
