In recent years, the main combat equipment of the People's Navy has been rapidly iterated, from small boats to giant ships, from individual soldiers to systems. The modernized People's Navy, with the fourth-generation equipment as the leader and the third-generation equipment as the main body, is forming. The Navy's submarine force includes strategic nuclear submarines, attack nuclear submarines, and conventional-powered submarines, which are important underwater strike forces and key development branches of the People's Navy. Military expert Cao Weidong: Our conventional submarines are now equipped with AIP systems, which means they do not rely on air power. This allows them to dive without surfacing frequently, and their concealment capabilities underwater are better, which is typical of conventional submarines. As for nuclear submarines, we have both attack nuclear submarines, which carry conventional weapons such as torpedoes and missiles, and strategic missile nuclear submarines, which can now carry a significant number of strategic missiles, increasing their ability to strike from the sea. So, from the perspective of dual nuclear and conventional capabilities, we have our highlights.
