Orzel - Yunes issue
The caption of the Kilo in question was mislabeled. It is not the Polish Orzel but rather the Iranian Yunes.

I'm certain this is in fact the Yunes. The Orzeł has the number 291 and a white eagle on both sides of its sail. The Yunes has no such markings. Additionally, there's another picture of the Orzeł here on Wikipedia that was taken in 1993. Those markings were present then and are still there today.

It said it went faster submerged then on the surface, it didnt make sence so i changed it. i could be wrong —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.65.35.26 (talk) 17:26, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
 * And I am changing it back. Modern teardrop shaped submarines are designed for underwater operation, and their hulls are more hydrodynamic when submerged then when surfaced. --OuroborosCobra 18:29, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Romania
Romania doesn't operate the Kilo submarine anymore, yet here it says it does. Who can delete that from the sub description ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Iulian28ti (talk • contribs) 09:10, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Iran has six
The Iranian navy operates 6 KILO class submarines.They used to operate 3 until they bought 3 more. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.80.221.225 (talk) 15:32, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

You have no proof of this and the source on the page next to the number Iran operates clearly says they only have 3 as do numerous other sources. Eagle07 (talk) 16:12, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Iran having six Kilo subs would be big news all over the defense-tech internet community. Pure rubbish. They have got three and almost certainly will never again receive any more. 58.171.222.51 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:46, 1 June 2009 (UTC).

Iran subs all in service
Based on this photo, it looks like all three Iran subs are back in service. Also looks like they have snorkels now. Kendall-K1 (talk) 13:24, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

✅ This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.— cyberbot II NotifyOnline 20:07, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Propulsion error Infobox
There is still an error in the Infobox... Diesel-Electric propulsion is correct, but there is written:

Diesel-electric propulsion 2 × 1000 kW Diesel generators 1 × 5,500–6,800 shp (4,100–5,100 kW) Propulsion motor 1 × fixed-pitch 6 or 7 bladed propeller (6BL project 877) (7BL project 636)

The exact propulsion seems to depend on Year and Model but it is in the range of 4,100 to 5,100 kW or 5,500 to 6,800 horsepower. Means 2 x 1,000 kW Generators are not able to give even close enough power to the engines and also Electricity is needed on every ship, especially war-ships with modern technology. The 2 x 1,000 kW Generators are for Electricity and for a reload (if needed) for 120-cells inside the submarine which allows very slow submerged driving at 7 knots for a short distance.

I found this:

Diesel Engines: 2 x 3 650 horsepower Electric motors: 1 x 5 900 horsepower

Which would be correct.... Greetings Kilon22 (talk) 03:23, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
