The Halland can also be used to deploy the Bofors Underwater Systems stand-off self-deployed Mine 42. The submarine also has the capacity to carry 48 mines mounted externally in a girdle arrangement. The ship's combat management system is the 9SCS Mark 3 from CelsiusTech. The system carries the Swedish Royal Navy designation SESUB 940A. The system uses an extended version of the ADA software from CelsiusTech's 9LV Mk 3 surface ship combat management system. The fire control system has the capacity to control several torpedoes in the water simultaneously. The new application software includes target motion analysis developed by Kockums and the University of Lund at Malmo. Kockums have also been responsible for the development of enhanced software for navigation, for torpedo tube control and torpedo tube simulation. The 9SCS Mark 3 Combat Management System has three multifunction consoles, Type IID from Terma.

The terminals are for command and control, communications, and weapon control. The consoles are connected via a dual Ethernet copper wire local area network. The combat management system receives data from the submarines' sensors. The submarine is equipped with a CSU 90-2 integrated sonar sensor suite from STN Atlas Elektronik. This includes a passive cylindrical bow array, an intercept array and two passive flank arrays. The sonar system uses ADA software. The submarine is equipped with a Kollmorgen search and attack periscope and a Terma Scanter navigation radar. The electronic support measures system is the Racal Thorn Manta radar surveillance and warning system as deployed on the British Royal Navy Oberon and Churchill class submarines. Manta carries out surveillance, detection, analysis, classification and identification of hostile radar threats from D-band to J-band. The Manta system also provides a prediction of the detectability of the host submarine by the threat radar using a combination of data from the hostile radar frequency, the sea state and the configuration of the submarine's periscope assembly. The submarine is equipped with two MTU diesel engines and two Kockums V4-275R Stirling Air Independent Propulsion units. The Stirling engines are mounted in elastic, soundproof modules and each provide up to 75 kW. The submarine has the capacity for two weeks of air independent propulsion at a speed of 5 knots without snorting. The AIP uses liquid oxygen and diesel fuel in a controlled inert (helium) environment. The AIP liquid oxygen tanks are located on the deck below the engines. The propulsion system provides a speed of 11 knots surfaced and 20 knots dived.

HERON

The USS Heron is an American Osprey Class mine hunter. The Osprey Class ships are the world's largest glass reinforced plastic (GRP) ships and are the first United States Navy ships designed solely for mine hunting. The technique used to locate mines is by high definition sonar and the mines are neutralised with a remotely controlled underwater vehicle. The platform has been designed with exceptionally low magnetic and acoustic signatures to protect against mine detonations during mine hunting operations. The ship has two Isotta Franschini ID 36 SS 8V AM diesel engines which provide 1,600 hp and drive two Voith Schneider cycloidal propellers for increased manoeuvrability. The non magnetic diesel engines are similar to those used in the US Navy's Avenger Class Mine Countermeasures Vessels. The three diesel generators are Isotta Franschini ID 36. The machinery is acoustically isolated and suspended from the main deck in glass reinforced plastic cradles. When an undersea explosion occurs the isolated machinery remains
unaffected. For defence, the ship has two 12.7 mm machine-guns.
