現在「艦これ」運営鎮守府は、今週【8/10(木)】実施メンテ完了を以て作戦開始予定、今季の夏イベント2017：期間限定海域【西方再打通！欧州救援作戦】作戦準備に邁進しています. 本欧州救援作戦では、英仏伊の新艦娘も投入！また独艦娘「Z1」も里帰り水着mode実装予定です！

Whoa. Awsome! More Foreign Shipgirls!

So I guess the foreign submarine will be British, because Italians didn't have anything spectacular in that field, so did the French. Is the new battleship confirmed? Will we get Vittorio Veneto? Or one of Home Fleet's? There's also Richelieu-class

Needless to say, looking at all potential drops had me like: The British have even less impressive subs, mate.

The sub will be most likely to be Italian, as they have Luigi Torelli, a Macroni-class submarine which also saw servince in the Kriegsmarine as well as the IJN (under the names UIT-25 and I-504, respectively)

I think the new French ship will be a BB (either Dunkerque or Richelieu), as the Italians already have their BBs, and that French BB was hinted by Teste.
