Blekinge-class submarine equipment records. Variants, orders and quantities are shown as reported in each inventory source; coverage is incomplete.
Reported count for Blekinge class (A26 class). Service scope: ships of the Polish Navy; does not replace a national total. 1 distinct quantity component(s) from the same source list; shared rowspan cells counted once. Explicit source inventory scope: ordered; no other stock status or total inferred. Count column(s): on order: 3. Origin: Sweden. The listed variants/roles are the scope, not an immediately deployable count. The components do not establish one inventory census date; the stored date is the retrieved source snapshot.
