I wonder if they have improved the radation sheilding in the sub, compaired to earlier subs in which the crew had to be rested due to high radation levels.:hmm:

Interesting...

Where she's parked up is where they used to have their Golf class, wonder where they've put that now...

She looks pretty sea-worthy, no doubt she'll be out at sea within the month, unless she turns into another Xia and spends most of her time in dry-dock...

The new Type 093 SSN is supposed to be roughly equivalent to a Victor III class. I would bet my next paycheck the Chinese are getting help from at least the Russians.

PD

That would be a wise investment too, they are getting help from the russians its widely known not only tat type 093 is made with help from the russians to be modeled on victor III to top it off the type 094 is based on the older yankee class and newer delta class they just chopped and changed bits.

It has to be better than the Xia class but I guess that wouldn't be too hard to accomplish.
