HSwMS Springaren (Sp), was the sixth boat of the Draken-class submarine of the Swedish Navy.

[1] HSwMS Springaren was launched on 31 August 1961 by Saab Kockums, Malmö and commissioned on 7 November 1962.

On September 24, 1980, Springaren was extremely close to colliding with an unknown submarine east of Huvudskär.

During an exercise, she operated together with one of the Navy's anti-submarine helicopters.

The connecting helicopters also detect the visitor, and immediately classify it as a submarine.
