The Platform Management System (PMS) enables to control and monitor the submarine’s main installations in propulsion, electricity, safety, auxiliary and stability domains. The steering system controls the motion of the submarine by controlling the hydroplanes and rudder. It also controls the propulsion, regulation and trim systems on board, by an interface with PMS. Such critical equipments demand a very high level of training for flawless operations on board.

The training comprised of operation and troubleshooting (On board maintenance) activities and simulation for real time situations. The training progress was continously followed and reviewed by high level naval officials.
