In order to contribute with defense and sovereignty over Brazilian Jurisdictional Waters, the Brazilian Navy has concentrated its efforts on the Submarine Development Program (PROSUB), which will expand the Force's operational capacity to protect and preserve our Blue Amazon*. As part of the new Growth Acceleration Program PAC, of the Federal Government, and under coordination of the Navy Command, PROSUB was created in 2008, comprising the construction of an industrial Infrastructure and Support for the operation and maintenance of submarines, the construction of four conventional submarines and the construction project of the first Brazilian conventionally armed submarine with nuclear propulsion.

Supported by three pillars: technology transfer, except in the nuclear area, nationalization of equipment and systems, and personnel training, the Program is enabling the first industrial complex and logistical support dedicated to naval means with nuclear propulsion in the southern hemisphere.

Built in an area of 750 thousand square meters, the Itaguaí Naval Complex is one of the largest engineering works in the country, designed to build and house the new generation of Brazilian submarines. The first of four Brazilian conventional submarines (S-BR), the Submarine "Riachuelo" (S-40) was launched to the sea on December 14th, 2018. In sequence, the Humaitá (S-41) was launched in 2020; the Tonelero (S-42), in 2024 and the Almirante Karam (S-43), in 2025.

The first Brazilian conventionally armed submarine with nuclear propulsion, main scope of the program, will be named "Álvaro Alberto", a tribute to the Admiral who was the pioneer in the use of nuclear technology in the country. The completion of the Program will also strengthen several sectors of the national industry of strategic importance for the country's economic development.

*Blue Amazon (Amazônia Azul) is the name given to Brazil's jurisdictional waters and continental shelf since 2004, covering roughly 5.7 million maritime area in the South Atlantic. It is a strategic concept highlighting immense economic (oil, fishing, minerals) and biodiversity resources, deemed as vital for national security as the land-based (Green) Amazon rainforest.
