What we know
The publication Naval News writes about it. The new submarine is China's most advanced non-nuclear submarine. It is a new variant of the Type-039A Yuan class. Unfortunately, China keeps the exact name of the submarine a secret. According to the analysts, it could be Type-039C or Type-039D.
It is known that the submarine was built in Wuhan, and then it was transferred to Shanghai for rework. Now the submarine has been officially commissioned, just over a year after its launch.
