MESMA is in service with the Pakistani navy and may be adopted by India (ironically). Spain and Italy also have AIP products in development. The Spanish one will go for their S-80 subs.

Correct! The Pakistani Navy operate 3 Agosta 90B with MESMA and India ordered several Scorpène-class submarines with MESMA.

Spain ordered parts for the AIP system from Germany (methanol reformator) and the US (fuel cells). Italy operates 2 Type 212 submarines with AIP and has two more on order for 2016.
