Hello everyone, I'm Mark. Welcome back to Mark Time.
This is my exclusive video in the clean world.
On the morning of June 18th, a 094A strategic nuclear submarine of the Chinese Navy
surfaced in the Taiwan Strait.
Then, under the escort of a warship,
it sailed northward through the Taiwan Strait.
The strategic nuclear submarine is always mysterious.
It is one of the three core nuclear forces of the Republic of China.
It always carries more than a dozen weekly ballistic missiles
and is located deep in the ocean.
As a covert nuclear attack force,
it can give the enemy a destructive blow,
which is the second nuclear strike.
Five nuclear powers, the United States, Russia, China and Britain,
all have strategic nuclear submarines.
The surface of the nuclear submarine is very rare through the Taiwan Strait,
so this incident has aroused a lot of speculation.
Today I'm going to talk about the strategic nuclear submarine of China, the United States and Russia.
The nuclear submarine that passed through the Taiwan Strait this time
is the latest type of 094A submarine according to the photo judgment.
This type of submarine has a displacement of more than 10,000 tons
and can carry more than 7,000 kilometers
of nuclear warheads.
It is the most important strategic nuclear strike method of the CCP.
Strategic nuclear submarines need to keep their eyes open,
otherwise they will not easily surface.
Only when they enter and exit the port,
when the water is too deep and there is a failure,
and when they declare that there is no harm,
can they pass through.
In addition, when they want to declare their nuclear power,
they will also let these nuclear submarines expose their location.
This time, the location of the CCP's 094A submarine
is in the outskirts of Kinmen,
nearly 12 nautical miles from the Chinese Linhai Line
and more than 20 nautical miles from the Taiwan Strait Central Line.
The depth of the water here is less than 100 meters,
and there are many fishermen fishing nearby.
For a large submarine with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons
and a height of more than 20 meters,
it is more dangerous to dive here.
The key is why this submarine does not follow the normal navigation
route to the eastern coast of Taiwan,
but goes to the Taiwan Strait.
Such a thing happened in November 2021.
At that time, the European reconnaissance satellite Shaobin 2
took a photo of the CCP's nuclear submarine
quietly passing through the Taiwan Strait.
American Naval Research Institute
columnist and military expert Saturn thinks
that this 094 strategic nuclear submarine
departs from the Yalong Bay submarine base in Hainan Island
and sails northward,
and has another surface-to-water warship escort.
This submarine is likely to return to the Bohai Shipyard for repair.
At that time, this submarine has been sailing along the coast of China.
Outsiders think that the submarine may have had
an irreparable failure and was in danger of sinking.
So they had to take a long-distance launch
and return to the shipyard for repair.
In addition to that time in 2021,
a 093 nuclear submarine was also reported in 2023
and had a failure during the exercise in the Yellow Sea.
The British media first reported the accident
and said that the submarine sank and all the crew were killed.
But later, the Ministry of National Defense of Taiwan confirmed
that there was indeed an accident with a communist nuclear submarine,
but not a sinking accident.
Submarines of the Soviet Union and Russia
have had many major accidents
and even caused many submarines to sink.
The 094A on the water this time
is a very new nuclear submarine.
If there is also an accident,
then the quality of the Chinese nuclear submarine
is really worth paying attention to.
Recently, the Chinese high-levels
invaded the Rocket Army and Equipment Development Department
because of corruption and equipment fraud.
Have the recent nuclear submarine accidents
also been a major exposure to naval corruption?
Of course, in addition to the reasons for the suit,
there is also the possibility of entering the Taiwan Strait
in order to avoid the anti-submarine reconnaissance of the US,
Japan and the navy nearby.
In addition, it is to show off to the United States.
Nuclear submarines, especially strategic nuclear submarines,
are generally not reported by the media.
If a submarine appears,
it is likely to be used to show nuclear power to its opponent.
The Soviet Union, Russia, the United States and the CCP
have all done this.
For example, in July 2023,
the U.S. strategic nuclear submarine Kendaji
visited the port of Fushan in South Korea.
This is 42 years later,
the U.S. strategic nuclear submarine
stopped by South Korea again.
In May 2023,
CCTV reported that a 094 nuclear submarine
completed training in the Western Pacific
and returned to its home port.
This submarine appeared publicly in the Philippine Strait.
It is only about 800 kilometers away from the U.S. Guam base.
After the outbreak of the Russian-U.S. war,
in December 2022,
the U.S. Navy continuously released
many Russian-U.S. strategic nuclear submarines.
The West Virginia submarine
stopped at the Degasia base in India.
The Rhode Island submarine
visited the U.S. Navy base in Gibraltar.
The Michigan submarine
entered the U.S. Navy base in Japan.
Foreign analysts believe
that the U.S. military took the initiative
to announce the movements of some strategic nuclear submarines
in an attempt to issue a warning to the Chinese Communist Party and Russia.
The Indian and Japanese bases
are all within the Indo-Pacific strategic range of the United States,
and visiting the Rhode Island base in Gibraltar
may be a threat to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The 094 strategic nuclear submarine
is the only naval nuclear power of the Chinese Communist Party.
The number is about six.
The Chinese Communist Party media reported that
since November 2022,
the 094 submarine has begun a strategic shift after the New Year.
However, the U.S. and Soviet strategic nuclear submarines
have already begun a strategic shift after the New Year
The Chinese Communist Party and other nuclear powers
are one step behind.
The 094 nuclear submarine is about 133 meters long
and about 13 meters wide.
It can carry 9,000 tons of water.
It can carry 11,000 tons of water.
It is the first nuclear submarine
to break the 10,000-ton mark
among all Chinese Communist Party submarines.
It is said to have introduced Russian nuclear submarine technology
and modern technology to improve noise performance.
The 094 submarine uses a submarine-type nuclear reactor
and has a speed of more than 26 knots.
The size of the stop-and-stop ballistic missile cabin is increased
and can carry 12 giant type 2 submarine missiles.
However, Chinese domestic media
think that compared with the U.S.'s Ohio class,
Russia's North Wind God class,
the United Kingdom's Predecessor class
and the French Conquistador class,
the 094 nuclear submarine has a very large gap
Even the Delta IV strategic nuclear submarine
can't compare with it.
It can be said to be the first among the five.
The gap of the 094 submarine
is mainly reflected in the lack of load capacity,
the low speed, shallow depth,
the worst quietness,
the problem of equipment
and the poor performance
of submarine-type ballistic missiles.
First of all, the stop-and-stop of the 094 submarine is too small
and the load capacity is insufficient.
The stop-and-stop of the 094 submarine
is based on the 093 type of attack nuclear submarine
and has been extended.
Although it has been reduced,
it also limits the position of the submarine.
The surface water volume of the 094 submarine
is only 8,000 to 9,000 tons.
The position of the submarine is smaller than that of Western nuclear submarines.
This also leads to the fact that the 094 submarine
can only carry 12 G-2 type
submarine-type ballistic missiles.
The Ohio class can carry
24 submarine-type ballistic missiles.
The strategic nuclear submarine of Russia, Britain and France
can also carry 16.
The load capacity is more than that of the 094.
Secondly, the return of the 094 submarine.
The return of the 094 submarine is also due to the small stop-and-stop.
The strategic nuclear submarine of Ohio class
can only carry 12.8 meters.
The next generation of Columbia class
can carry 13.1 meters.
The God of North Wind of Russia can carry 13 meters.
Although the strategic nuclear submarine of Britain and France
has no data,
it is also estimated to be more than 12 meters.
The 094 submarine is extended
by the 093 type of attack nuclear submarine.
Therefore, the strategic nuclear submarine of Ohio class
can only carry 9 to 10 meters.
It is thinner than the strategic nuclear submarine of other countries.
It has to use a large armament
to accommodate the 13.3-meter long
Columbia-2 state-of-the-art ballistic missile.
However, the large armament
has a negative impact on the performance of the submarine itself,
including navigation, stealth, and stealth.
The third is the navigation, stealth, and stealth problem.
The British Discovery and Defense Weekly
believes that the maximum navigation speed of the 094
is only 20 knots, and the stealth is only 240 meters.
The strategic nuclear submarine of the Soviet Union
has a navigation speed of 24 knots,
and the stealth is 300 meters.
The 094's indicator
is only equivalent to the level of the 1980s.
As for the stealth,
it is difficult to reduce the sound of the aircraft
Even the improved model 094A
has a sound of 120 decibels.
It used to be mocked by the United States
because the noise was too loud,
but it can be heard in Hawaii.
Finally, the performance of the stealth nuclear missile is poor.
The 094 nuclear submarine is currently equipped
with Columbia-2 stealth nuclear missile.
Columbia-2 also has an improved model
Columbia-2 and Columbia-2E.
According to U.S. estimates,
the maximum range can reach 9,000 kilometers.
Compared to the 3X-2D5 of the U.S.
Russia's North Wind God equipped with the
M-51 intermediate-range missile
of the French Conquistador
Columbia-2 has a certain gap.
And Columbia-2 does not have
the ability to carry multiple warheads.
It can only carry one warhead,
which further increases the gap between the U.S. and Russia.
The current strategic nuclear submarine of the U.S.
is a product of the Cold War period.
Some of them have been modified
into a cruise missile submarine
that can carry 154 warhead cruise missiles.
The U.S. is currently designing and building
a new generation of strategic nuclear submarines
Columbia-class.
The first ship was built in 2020
and is expected to be in service in 2031.
The Ohio-class submarine was built
from 1976 to 1997.
A total of 18 ships were built,
170 meters in length, 13 meters in width,
16,764 tons of water,
18,750 tons of submarine displacement,
Each Ohio-class submarine
has 24 missile launchers.
It can launch 3X2-5 cruise missiles.
3X2-5 has a combat range
of more than 12,000 kilometers.
It can carry 8 W88 warheads
or 12 W76 warheads.
But under the restrictions
of the Strategic Attack Weapons
Cutting Treaty,
it can only carry 8 warheads.
Each W88 warhead has
47.5 tons of explosive energy,
while the explosive energy
of the W76 warhead is smaller,
about 100,000 tons.
Columbia-class nuclear submarines
began construction in 2020
and are planned to build 12 ships
with a total length of 171 meters
and a total width of 13 meters.
Columbia-class submarines
reduce the number of missile launchers
from 24 to 16.
The diameter of the missile launchers
is the same as that of the Ohio-class
and the length is enough
to accommodate the existing
3X2-5 missiles.
Columbia-class submarines
do not need to be replaced
or fuel during service
and have a shorter repair time.
The U.S. Navy needs to maintain
10 capable nuclear submarines
so only 12 Columbia-class submarines
two of which are in repair.
Because the U.S. and Russia
signed a new Strategic Attack Weapons
Cutting Treaty,
the number of nuclear warheads
is limited to 1,550.
So the Ohio-class only carries
20 missiles
and does not have 24 launchers.
The U.S. Navy's assessment
is that a new submarine
with 16 missile launchers
is the most suitable
and can reduce operating costs
and meet the strategic deployment needs
After the collapse of the Soviet Union,
large shipbuilding companies
lost the ability
to build large warships
because they were all in Ukraine,
but retained the complete
nuclear submarine development
and construction energy.
The North Wind God
is the world's largest
strategic nuclear submarine
There are already
7 North Wind God submarines
and plan to build 12.
The North Wind God
is a large submarine
with a length of 170 meters
and a width of 13.5 meters
with a water surface displacement
of 1.7 million tons
and a submarine displacement
of 240,000 tons
with a single-axis jump propulsion
and a maximum speed of 29 knots
It is equipped with 16
2-30 round-hull-type
single-missile-missile
with a range of 10,000 kilometers
and can carry 6 missile launchers
The former Soviet Union
had built 6 Typhoon-class
strategic nuclear submarines
with a submarine displacement
of more than 40,000 tons
and the world's largest submarine
with 20 ballistic missiles
But this kind of submarine
is also very expensive
After the collapse of the Soviet Union,
Russia continued to retire
because it lacked money to maintain
In addition to the new North Wind God,
Russia also retained some
The former Soviet Union built
Delta-3 and Delta-4 strategic nuclear submarines
Delta-4 and Delta-3
have almost the same structure
with a length of 155 meters
and a width of 11.7 meters
with a submarine displacement
of 1.3 million tons
and a maximum speed of 24 knots
It is equipped with 12 missile launchers
and can launch 229PM
liquid-fuel-bomber missiles
Each missile can carry
three nuclear warheads with
an explosive capacity of 250,000 tons
or seven nuclear warheads with
an explosive capacity of 100,000 tons
with a combat range of 8,500 kilometers
These Delta-class submarines
were served in the 1980s and 1990s
and are approaching life
and are gradually retiring
And the Delta-class also has
huge equipment and a loud noise
The missiles are still liquid fuel
and the overall combat performance is relatively low
But their maintenance costs are relatively low
For Russia, which is short of money
this is a helpless situation
Okay, that's all for today
