EurAsian Times: PLA Navy’s ‘Sharks’ Get Stealthier, China On Verge Of Producing ‘World-Class’ Nuclear Submarines – US Naval War College
It is well known that the Chinese Navy has numerical supremacy over the navies of other countries. However, a recently released report says that after five decades since it inducted its first nuclear-powered conventionally armed submarine (SSN), the People’s Liberation Army – Navy (PLA-N) is on the verge of producing “world-class” nuclear submarines with its propulsion, quieting, sensors and weapons capabilities approaching that of Russian Akula -I class SSN.
Acoustic stealth is one of the salient attributes of modern submarines. The quietness of the design is seldom revealed, but the assumption can be safely made that Chinese submarines are increasingly becoming stealthier.
The report released by the US Naval War College assesses that this giant leap in technology will have “profound implications” for US undersea security.

It’s starting to look like a lot of defence related deals were made in the last year with China and North Korea. Both countries have cheap labour and impressive manufacturing capacity and potential. When it come to Russia, most in the west haven’t realized that all they did by screwing around in Ukraine was awaken the soviet beast. Watch out little tranny eagle 🦅 🌈
ReplyDeleteThe Soviet Union is gone and is never coming back. Nevertheless you are correct. Their actions have strengthened Russia and made them an enemy that we didn't need.
DeleteRussia has been weakened militarily to rhe point it will take decades to reach pre war status . All this has been accomplished without nato firing a shot..who played who?
DeleteChinese now have some of the best super computers in the world. It is only a mater of time when they also will have western class subs.

ReplyDeleteHow in the world do you come up with theses assessments?
Russia has been weakened?
Here is a refutation of what you just said and it is all true.
Even though at war and under some of the worst sanctions ever the Russian economy is doing just fine.
Russians arms factories are now in full production and after a year, probably got most of the faults out of thier operating lines
Russian arms factories are producing large quantities of weapons and material, and so much so, that NATO this year said they cannot keep up.
Russian army has totally revamped its training and logistics operations since last year. They got their heads slapped in FEB Mar 2022 and used this setback as a learning event.
Russian has pushed/fought the western supplied and trained Ukrainian army to a stand-still and have beaten all of these western built units.
Russian nuke forces are now on full alert and have upgraded all thier strategic systems.
Russian has been weakened? Your nuts
It would have been better if we had left these bastards alone.
Just like the beginning of WW2
The US was not the best of a fighting machine
But by the End of 1942. we were doing pretty good.
The historical lesson learned. the longer you spend in a major conflict....as long as you are NOT GETTING DEFEATED (like Ukraine or nazi Germany). your military gets only stronger. by the hard lessons of combat.
