نظرة عامة على النظام

The Type 039C (Yuan class, later variant) is China's most advanced conventionally powered attack submarine, featuring air-independent propulsion (AIP) using the Stirling engine system. It is China's most stealthy SSK, with advanced hydrodynamic shaping and coatings. The Type 039C carries Yu-6 heavyweight torpedoes and CJ-18 submarine-launched cruise missiles, providing both anti-surface and land-attack capabilities.

Main gun accuracy at extended range requires stabilization and fire control maturity that few systems achieve.

Endurance figures for sustained blue-water operations are solid, though replenishment cycles still constrain operational planning.
