The Republic of China Navy (RoCN) has announced that construction work on Taiwan’s first locally designed and developed diesel-electric attack submarine (SSK) will begin before the end of November.

The RoCN said in a 2 November statement that the island’s new submarine-building facility, located in the southern port city of Kaohsiung, will become operational this month, with local naval shipbuilder CSBC Corporation expected to hold a ceremony to mark the beginning of production of the first of eight planned submarines.
