some friends just told me this is 6600ton type 32 ballistic missile test submarine "Great Wall - 201" , not 093, 094 .

Correct. That is the Type-32 test submarine with the sail modified.

no thread for 032 here?
do you know when it was modified?

Type-32 related stuff are posted in this thread - https://www.sinodefenceforum.com/plan-type-035-039-091-092-submarine-thread.t3746/

Don't know when exactly it was modified but check this post - https://www.sinodefenceforum.com/pl...2-submarine-thread.t3746/page-296#post-466293

thank you so much

So for SSBN

4 x Type 094 SSBN
1 x Type 092 SSBN

For SSN

5 x Type 093
3 x Type 091

To be fair these are sporadic units

The new base should streamline the production for Type 96 and Type 095 in high numbers

I don't think China would build more 093 and 094 series anymore ... 095 and 096 are already being built .. and they will be built in high number ... my guess would be ~12x 095 and ~6x 096

2 Hyperwarp: thank you.
checked google imagery: they did it in spring last year.

Really? I don't think we have heard word of 095 construction yet, to speak nothing of the 096. I suspect that large submarine assembly hall will serve as the marker for the beginning of 095 construction, once the facility is complete.

Nope. You go that one spot on. So why is there a bump? Someone here said that it maybe a new reactor related thing?

Could be a location for the escape pod.
