as recently as 2005

You do realize that's almost 20 years ago. That's like saying "well you realize in 1985..." Back in 2005.

(The 2000s have been a blur for me time wise too)

If I'm not mistaken, that was a Gotland Class. Built in the early 90s, so over 30 years old.

France has at least one diesel submarine that's decades more modern.
