Hong Kong's Xin-bao reported on July 7th that China has deployed next-generation nuclear submarines and is capable of second nuclear counterstrike.
German military publication 'International Navy' reported that China officially deployed recently-developed Type 093 and 094 nuclear submarines, and conducted training exercises. They are in combat-deployment now, according to the publication.
It said that Type 094, Tang-class, is the improved version of Xia-class nuclear submarine, with 10,000-ton displacement, and can carry 16 Julang-2 SLBM's which have the range of 10,000 km. Each Julang-2 can have three nuclear-warheads, which means that a single Type 094 submarine can strike 48 targets simultaneously.
Type 094 has fourth-generation nuclear reactor and is equipped with noise-suppression feature and precision sonar capability. It has superior stealth, mobility, and survivability, which is rated as comparable to Ohio-class submarine of U.S.
Type 093 is an attack submarine with 7,150 ton displacement , whose design is based on Han-class submarine.
If their deployment is successful, Chinese nuclear capability will expand from land-based nukes to second nuclear counterstrike, according to this publication.
People's Daily, Chinese official communist party paper, featured an article on its Internet site about the submarines on July 6th, which is a de-facto confirmation of their deployment.

Thanks for the Links!!!
Thanks for the links. I'm looking for a vacuum cleaner - and Dyson just got eliminated!
There were alot of shenanigans by the ChiComms and the Clinton administration. The Cox report is full of things that the ChiComms got under Clinton's watch. The "coincidence" of campaign dollars from the ChiComms to the Democrat party smells to high heaven, and was embarassing enough that former American hero John Glenn sold his soul and good name for one last rocket ride in exchange for gumming up the Senate investigation in the matter. I am a big believer that one plus one equals two. ChiComms give Democrats money, ChiComms end up with enough of our technology to push them ahead by a factor of 15 to 25 years. They may have stole it fair and square, but someone wasn't guarding it like they should have been.
: )
just too hot dang funny!!
Ya, but where'd they get all the money to buy these subs with...Why'ant ya ask Clinton's brother, George B...
And how accurate and how reliable were they? Care to address that issue, since you're so forthcoming with information?
They couldn't even get their large rockets into space with realiability, and you're trying to say they were a real threat?
What about MIRV tech? Where did they get that?
Gyros and MIRV tech were given to Chine during the Clinton administration because China's rockets were an unreliable ride to space. MIRV gave them the ability to put more than one object into space. It gave them multiple strike as well.
The operative word here is "CLINTON"!
He partied hardy, while the world changed.
Maybe he thought they were worth it?
yeah that one.. LOL
did you guys read the newwest attack on Bush? Press is implying NK became more dangerous after Bush was elected... really?
That canard is being pushed by Albright and her MSM buddies. If you heard Rush talk about the stake she has in the N.K. Agreed Framework deal, you know why....
The Electrostatically Supported Gyroscope is not really that new. But is indeed amazing. Loral was once the name of the Sperry company that integrated the inertial nav systems of ALL us SSBNs.
I think of this often.
whats a Ho Ming torpedo?
I know you mean Bernie Schwartz.
I used to date his right hand "girl" back when Loral was small and their largest account was the Israeli Armed Forces, whom they supplied with various electronics.
Loral was based in Yonkers, NY in those days circa 1975.
He was a Type A driven nutcake prone to shouting & screaming.
Are you denying Clinton helped China to get technology to better launch their missles ..??
Wasn't it Loral who supplied that technology .. after Loral gave a huge donation to the Clinton '96 campaign ..??
All good points.
