Aside from the blasphemous name, the HUGELY BIG SIZE, and the FACT this nuke U-boat can carry 48 sub launched nuclear missiles, versus 24 for US subs, it was launched on April Fools Day, and is really a Sun Tzu, for the guy who wrote the Art of War, and also reflects the 100th anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party.

BEHOLD THE CHINESE TYPE 100-CLASS “GOD OF SUBMARINES”
Chinese submarine, identified as the Type-100 Class is reportedly contesting Russian Navy’s mighty Pr.941 Typhoon Class submarine as the largest ever built.
This was reported by H. I. Sutton for Naval News.
The new submarine is reportedly armed with 48 Submarine Launched Ballistic Missiles (SLBMs). It can also carry massive nuclear-powered nuclear-armed autonomous torpedoes.
The submarine was unveiled on April 1st
It was revealed at the Bohai Shipyard in Huludao, China, the new submarine is believed to be the Type-100 ‘Sun Tzu’ class. The timing, together with its type number, appear to refer to the 100th year anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The vessel is approximately 210 meters long and about 30 meters across. This compares to a paltry 175 meters and 23 meters for the Typhoon Class. Although figures for the new submarine’s displacement are not known, it is almost certainly greater than the 48,000 ton Typhoon.
This makes the Chinese submarine, three or four times larger than the US Navy’s Ohio-class submarine. Furthermore, the Ohio class carries “only” 24 ballistic missiles.
In the bow are at least 8 Intercontinental nuclear-powered nuclear-armed hydrosonic torpedoes. These weapons are similar to the Russian Navy’s Poseidon weapon.
The hydrosonic torpedoes have an effectively unlimited range and are difficult to counter with current weaponry.
According to Sutton, its development, so soon after Russia moved forward with Poseidon, suggests that Poseidon has been exported. Or that some degree of a technology transfer has taken place.
The shift to a massive submarine may hint, like Typhoon, at an Arctic role. China regards itself as a Near-Arctic country and may intend to use the ice cap to protect its at-sea nuclear deterrence.
The C-100 also has an open hangar on its back, potentially for the “sailless” submarine, that was built in Shanghai.
One potential use for this is to provide layered self-defense for the host submarine. Another possibility is that it is for severing undersea internet cables in times of war.
It has been suggested that this tactic could be used to bring about the immediate collapse of Western economies.
After all, it should be remembered that April 1st may now go down in history for when the new era of submarines became, as this “God of Submarines” entered the scene.
One should also remember that the commissioning of the Russian Project 941 Typhoon-class submarines took place between 1981 and 1989, and then all except a single one were scrapped within the next 20 years. As of 2021 there is only one of these submarines left, since a massive underwater monster isn’t too hard to track, find and even potentially destroy.
One should keep in mind that this report is almost 100% certainly an April Fools’ Day joke, but on the off-chance it isn’t the West better prepare itself.
