China Gets Down with Submarines

Reporting for The Washington Times, Bill Gertz informs us of China’s newest offering for their submarine warfare program.  The 094-class submarine.  The sub is an SSBN type sub, meaning it is designed to throw nuclear ICBM missles from the ocean to land based targets.  Interesting.  What will also be interesting, is obtaining its sound signature.  Based on what I have experienced, regarding Chinese made goods, it’ll probably be easy to detect as it rattles around in the ocean depths.
