1995年初,世界上第1艘采用热气机的 AIP柴电潜艇——瑞典的“哥得兰”号潜艇下水,标明AIP 已从试验开发阶段进入实艇应用阶段。闭式循环柴油机(CCD)、德国的聚合物电解质膜(PEM)燃料电池和法国的自主式水下能源系统(MESMA)已经完成尺寸装置的研制工作,将在今后10年内投入使用。值得注意的是,巴基斯坦、阿根廷和韩国都确定选用 AIP 的潜艇。 At the beginning of 1995, the world's first AIP diesel submarine with a steam engine - Sweden's Gotland submarine launched into the water, signifying that the AIP has entered the real boat application stage from the pilot stage of development. Closed-cycle diesel engines (CCD), polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells in Germany, and French autonomous underwater energy system (MESMA) have completed the development of size devices and will be put into operation within the next 10 years. It is noteworthy that, Pakistan, Argentina and South Korea have selected AIP submarines.
