China's New SLBM Is The Largest Submarine In The World

The New Submarine is massively larger than previous Chinese Navy Nuclear Submarines. 


The new submarine, identified as the Type-100 Class, is armed with 48 Submarine Launched Ballistic Missiles (SLBMs). It can also carry ginormous nuclear-powered nuclear-armed autonomous torpedoes. And a hangar on its back indicates a smaller submarine will also be supported. There is no doubt that this is the new god of submarines. 

For decades the Russian Navy’s mighty Pr.941 Typhoon Class submarine has been the largest ever built. And size is relevant, both for political messaging as well as military reasons. Giant submarines can have greater stealth (due to space for quieting), greater survivability, and can operate for longer. 

But the Typhoon’s reign is over. The Chinese Navy’s (PLAN – People’s Liberation Army Navy) latest submarine is even larger.

WNU Editor: The vessel is approximately 210 meters (690 feet) long and about 30 meters (100 feet) across. The displacement is not known. To put everything into perspective, the new super submarine is three-to-four times the size of the U.S. Navy’s Ohio class boomer.

Biden’s Handlers Do it Again! Create Cheat Sheet Complete with Pictures for Old Joe During ESPN Interview (VIDEO)

China could launch and the USA could do nothing about it.

Watch the guy blink in the video. They have his puny 8086 overclocked and it still is not enough.

Newsweek editor said the press is worth 15 points in a presidential election. Another guys, a prof, says it is worth 8 to 10 points year round. After all that and what we we see with our own eyes, you want us to believe the polls. Your mendacity knows no bounds.


"having notes for a presentation is hardldy[sic] unusual"

The pictures are nice touch. I bet Putin saw that video clip and pissed his pants and Xi shit his pants. No, for REALS! They were laughing so hard they couldn't help it. You want to defend that, fine, but no one is buying his straight reading of the notes. That was so unimpressive.

We all know the deal. Joe is not up to it. He is not going to make another election. The DNC does not want his decrepitude to affect the midterms or 2024. If they take Joe out before the midterms, it might hurt the Democrats. If they leave him in office it might hurt them as well. So they are flummoxed. We definitely know that Joe is going to be replaced by December 2023 or January 2024 at the latest, so Kamala can run as a wonderful incumbent president and have the power of incumbent.

You know it.
I know it.
We all know it.

The emperor has no clothes.

Probably a testbed for every bit of tech they can squeeze on there. I'd be surprised if this class is a series of subs that large.
