what submarine is that? 93G?View attachment 521626 View attachment 521627 View attachment 521628 View attachment 521629 View attachment 521630 View attachment 521631 View attachment 521632 View attachment 521633 View attachment 521634 View attachment 521635 View attachment 521637 View attachment 521638 View attachment 521639 View attachment 521640 View attachment 521641
Type 039G conventional powered submarine, NATO code name Song Class SSK.what submarine is that? 93G?
What is the difference between Song Class and Kilo Class? Are both called 93G?Type 039G conventional powered submarine, NATO code name Song Class SSK.
Edit: Oops! Only the first and last photo is Type 039G. 2nd , 3rd and 4th are Kilo class.
Song class is a NATO name for China's Type 039G diesel-electric submarine. KILO class is Russian made submarines imported by China, it is also a diesel-electric submarine.What is the difference between Song Class and Kilo Class? Are both called 93G?
To elaborate further, the nuclear attack submarines are labelled with odd numerals: 09-I, 09-III, 09-V, while the nuclear ballistic missile submarines are labelled with even numerals: 09-II, 09-IV, 09-VI.Song class is a NATO name for China's Type 039G diesel-electric submarine. KILO class is Russian made submarines imported by China, it is also a diesel-electric submarine.
Type 093 is a nuclear powered attack submarine produced by China.
All domestic Chinese diesel-electric submarines are classified as type 03X, example, type 032, type 033, type 035 and type 039. Since KILO is an imported submarine, it is not classified as a type 03X.
The nuclear powered submarines are classified as type 09X, eg. type 091, type 092, type 093 and type 094. They are actually built under project 09, and the correct classification is Type 09I, Type 09II, Type 09III and type 09IV.
Thank you lcloo!
And i assume all of the submarines are built by BHISC and developed by 719th Institute, right?
The best argument I've seen is that it's to house a towed sonar array:I still wonder, what is the purpose of that little hump behind the conning tower. Anyway it get more streamlined in latest variant (Type 093B)
For China's Nuclear Submarines, Yes !
All built by BHISC, The Largest Submarine Facility Production in the World at this moment.
For China's Diesel-Electric Subs, there are JCNX (in Shanghai), Wuchang Shipyard (in Wuhan), and others.

Interesting as all subs are developed by CSIC but built by both CSIC and CSSC shipyardsFor China's Nuclear Submarines, Yes !
