A submarine is a sort of high-tech underwater "castle". The achievements come after over half a century of development.
Navy Information Technology expert Yin Zhuo said, "The information technology for our first class of submarines was at quite a low level. But now our submarines are armed with guided missiles. They are capable of performing strategic nuclear counterattacks against the enemy, strike long-range vessels, and also attack enemy submarines. "
This is a new type of submarine, containing about ten-thousand highly-developed automatic features and equipment,involving know-how in many disciplines.
Wang Yu, submarine captain of North Sea Fleet, said, "The data transporting system links all parts of this submarine, clarifying all information and uniting all military forces together."
Submarines always go far down in the sea, so everyone on board is isolated from the world. Sailor Wang Shunxi has been a steersman in submarines for 25 years. He is an excellent professional. And he is the steersman in the Chinese Navy who can control the most types of submarines. He has also taken part in the most missions and has won the most technical awards.

The Chinese Navy's submarine fleet has continued to develop in recent years. The army has worked out new strategies, including attacking from a long distance,laying mines, submarine-to-submarine attacks, and attacking vessels at sea.
The submarine fleet has also successfully accomplished several scientific trials and joint military drills with the marine corps and air force.
The successful launch of the Ballistic Missile by Nuclear Submarine means China is capable of undertaking a nuclear counterattack at sea. It also symbolizes the Chinese Navy's achievement over the past fifty years.
