Underwater drones Xluuv attack ships and wage sea fights: what is dangerous submarines of China
According to the publication, since the end of World War II in Asia, which is called "the Second Chinese-Japanese War" in China, the PRC dreams of revenge on Japan "for humiliation" during the war of 1937-1945. Now they will prepare for the celebration of the next anniversary of the Second World War, so analysts call for weapons. Chinese submarine UAV XLUUV is larger than traditional torpedoes and capable of carrying a payload such as weapons or sensors.
They have at least 5 different designs, and Beijing seeks to improve observations, shock opportunities and strategic restraint in what he considers his close abroad. According to the Naval Analytics HI Satton, some of these prototypes are armed, while others are only clearly intended for observation. In addition, they are larger than any other XLUUV submarines, which are being developed by other countries, including the United States.
At the same time, several OSINT analysts suggest that a massive secret submarine is being built on a shipyard in Guangzhou in China. It can be the largest submarine apparatus ever built. This mysterious submarine is allegedly have X-shaped steps for inconsistency, torpedo devices and possible towing water-locking installations. This will allow anti -ship attacks, change and even potentially deploy the forces of special operations, not to mention its potential for fighting on the sea.
"The fighting on the seabed is in fact the main aspect of these systems," analysts emphasize. The publication notes that China seeks to compete with the United States Army and possibly move it from the first place of world armies. The Chinese XLUUV program is based on a variety of advanced models designed for specific missions.
The UUV-300 series, including CB and CD options, armed with four light torpedoes, can go at a speed of 12 nodes, capable of deploying EM-12 bottom mines and can potentially have vertical launch missiles. The HSU-001 series provides priority with reconnaissance observation with vertical and horizontal engines for accurate maneuvering. The AJX002 series, the latest, has pumping-reactive engines and a modular structure for easy transportation and deployment with cranes.
Chinese XLUUV is container, which increases their deployment rate. Some analysts fear that future options will include a nuclear engine. "Beijing has consistently demonstrated vision, innovation and initiative, developing its modernization strategy and preparing to challenge the United States. You can hope that the Pentagon will be able to switch their attention from cumbersome, expensive, complex, difficult to build -made systems and naval.
