Re: PLAN submarines Thread II

Your welcome but nooo :) 16 Song Type 039/039G/039G1, in many sites 13 but really 16.

320 is the first only 039 with an easily recognizable different kiosk and in the order 321, 322, 323, 324, 313, 314, 315, 316, 317, 325, 318, 326, 328, 327, 329. Commissionned 1999/2006.

In 3 units :

2 Submarine Flotilla/Qingdao/NSF : 8
22 Submarine Flotilla/Daxiedao/ESF : 4 with 8 Yuan the more big Sub Flotilla
32 Submarine Flotilla /Yulin-Sanya/SSF : 4 with the last 4 Kilo 636M capable use AShM Klub.

i'm actually really curious about this one since I'm not sure where you are getting your sources from.

I'm pretty sure there are 13 Songs (1 039/3 039G/9 039G1) even though the numbers allocate for 16.

OK, this is what I see in Google Earth, where there fortunately are reasonably updated images:


Shazikou 05.07.13
1 x 094
4 x 091 including one in drydock (being dismantled?)

Having taken a second look, I realise the 092 is also there, being pushed by two harbour tugs at 36 06 24 N 120 34 37 E.

Regarding Google Earth..................what is the frequency of the picture updates?..............and can you tell how old the current images are shown?

Re: PLAN submarines Thread II

You can easily see the date of the image in GE (it may not be entirely accurate, though).

There is no pattern to updates, but Xiaopingdao is one location that is frequently updated. Looking at the timeline, I see in the last four years: 12.05.10, 31.10.10, 29.03.11, 21.06.11, 22.08.11, 30.03.12, 16.01.13, 17.01.13, 15.02.13 and finally 07.03.13, which is the last and the one I was referring to.

Re: PLAN submarines Thread II

It is very irregular and sometimes can be very old, 6/7 years and very cloudy, still very rare.

But GE is a wonderful software to properly locate bases / units and bear in mind, i love it :D

Title of "Underwater Test Pioneer Boat" was transferred to new test submarine.

I think this picture was taken within the old submarine.
