Review and Photos by Steven Hardwick \"Steven<\/a><\/p>\n

Designed in 1994 for attacking both other submarines and surface ships with torpedoes, the submarine uses a modern teardrop-shape hull for underwater performance. The hull incorporates four rudders and is propelled by a single propeller. For quieter operation, the engine was mounted with shock absorbers and the hull is plated in rubber tiles for sound deadening. Primary weapon for the Type 039 is the 533 mm Yu-4 torpedo. The main sensor is the medium-frequency sonar mounted in the bow of the submarine, with passive and active modes, which is used for both search and attack. In addition, the system offers a method of underwater communications, and also functions as a torpedo approach warning system. The 039G was redesigned in 2001. (NOTE) On one incident on October 26, 2006, a Chinese Song class submarine “popped up” and “surfaced within firing range of its torpedoes and missiles before being detected” within 5 nautical miles (9 km) of the carrier USS Kitty Hawk while she was operating in the East China Sea between Japan and Taiwan<\/p>\n
