Like someone here said there hasn't been any new SSK coming out of China since december of 2013 almost 3 years now. What is happening? Working on subs for Pakistan ? Working on new design ? Any word about a new SSK design coming out of China ?

Chinese nuclear subs are double-hulled but does that apply to the SSK? Kilo, All Yuan variants, as well as Qin test subs are double-hulled. But does that apply the the Song and older Ming? o_O
Han also get a double hull o_O

I think we've had a few pictures here and there (if you have an account on CDF they have some more photos than we have), but overall we don't seem to be getting as many photos.

Whether that's because they're actually not producing as many submarines or whether it's just because they're tightening up release of photos is another matter...
