We’ve known about this class for a while, but it has now been officially unveiled as shown in image below.<\/p>\n

For those who don’t know, this is the super class conventional submarine with a lot of lada\/kilo influence that was launched in Wuchang shipyard back in 2010. At the time, we thought it might be a new conventional submarine class to replace Yuan. However, it turns out this is basically a one ship class that will be used to replace the old No. 200 Gulf Class ballistic missile test bed. This will likely be used to test out ballistic missiles as well as new vertical launch system. It is Chinese navy’s new submarine test bed.<\/p>\n
