Hi ... I was asked by a member from the Secret-Projects team to ask here around for this very special topic:

I am wondering what your view is on Chinese seaborne special forces? My understanding is that, overall, China does not prioritize this capability but that over the years certain capabilities have grown up, particularly the SF divers themselves. But the first SDV I am aware of is the illustration of the new SSN.
The SF (I don't know the unit names) have Russian diver propulsion devices, and would have access to copies of western DPVs if they wanted them.
There's also the 20m midget submarine with twin torpedo tubes but that appears out of service?
Any hints would be greatly appreciated
