Understand deinitialization and inheritance in swift language
You can optionally have a deinit inside your subclass.
If you do
let x = Sub()you'll see that first the deinit called is the one inside Sub() then after, base deinit is called. So yes the super.deinit() is called but after the subclass.
Also the book says (page 286):
You are not allowed to call a deinitializer yourself. Superclass deinitializers are inherited by their subclasses, and the superclass deinitializer is called automatically at the end of a subclass deinitializer implementation. Superclass deinitializers are always called, even if a subclass does not provide its own deinitializer.
