Israel has recently concluded the purchase of a sixth cruise-missile capable submarine. I reckon that makes the middle-eastern nation just one behind the UK, though "our" missiles are probably capable of more destruction.
The submarine builders, ThyssenKrupp, used to be strongly associated as separate firms with the Nazi war effort, which may seem ironic. However, earlier in the century the same armaments firms supplied both sides in the Great War.
