And just like the Russians, they build their stuff on the cheap. No self respecting US Submariner would ever set foot in a Rickshaw Rick or Ruskie submarine, they are just plain too dangerous.

Wether less-well-made or not...the seriousness of the threat is what has to be understood.

E.g., regarding "dangerousness" ...Not half as dangerous as being on the ships within the range of their torpedoes...as the U.S. carrier flagship of the Panda-Hugging Admiral who was suitably embarrassed....and demanded to know, in effect, "What's the Meaning of this, don't you know we're trying mighty hard to appease you Chi-Comms???"
