Any chance one of these maybe for Pakistan, if it is it would throw India into a tail spin.

Pakistan's first 039 will be delivered in 2022.

The 039C could be ready for induction by that time.
Yes exact no for Pakistan construction start later first delivered for about 2020 the 4 of the first batch build inChina delivered for 2023 so considering 1 by year 2020 - 2023.

The 2nd batch of 4 is build in Pakistan the last delivered for 2028.

Ofc date/years under réservations.

Ok so far

16 x Type 039A/B

That's
4 x Type 039A
12 x Type 039B

A good modern SSK fleet

I am sure you are aware the above is only Yuan class

China also have 17 Ming (somewhat outdated), 13 Song and 12 Kilo (2x 877EKM, 2x 636 and 8x 636M) ... thats for SSK ... and growing fast

Apart from that also SSN and SSBN

Yet possible and i have hull numbers yet posted exist 16 Song

The SSK Fleet is composed of 6 Flotillas, 2 by Fleet 8 SSKs by Flotillas one have 12 if 16 Song are in service so a total of 52 operationals SSKs and new now Yuan replace one by one Ming so no increase right now, in qlty not in qty as for MSC or extremely few for their.

Last SSK increase in 2005 for number with a new Flotilla was stand up in the SSF so 8 SSKs.

52 Submarine Flotilla (often referred to as 72 Submarine Flotilla) is the newest in PLAN. The flotilla was formed at Xiachuandao in 2005 from eight Type 035G/B submarines (built 1997-2001). These submarines were handed down from 32 Submarine Flotilla Yulin, when the latter was re-equipped with Type 039G and Pr. 636M submarines in 2005-2006.

I can' t say better...

For SSNs difficult... but quite sure a new 093A is in service normaly a 2nd possible a 093B... so the Fleet have increase from 5 to 7.
