Elettronica noted that the contract includes two suites for the first batch of platforms of the Italian Navy. It also includes an option for the construction of two additional units.

The EW suite designed for the Italian Navy U212 NFS submarines is said to be an advanced and innovative response to the underwater domain requirements.
