While now being denied by Taiwan and most outlets, rumors are still swirling that a Chinese Type 093 Shang-class nuclear submarine is rumored to have suffered a serious accident near the Yellow Sea off Lianyungang, according to a number of social media reports. Many of these reports claim the entire crew is dead.
China’s major state-controlled media outlets were silent about the rumor.
Other reports suggest the incident took place closer to the Taiwan Strait, which would be a major combat flashpoint in the event of an invasion of Taiwan.
The Type 093 is the People’s Liberation Army Navy’s (PLAN) most modern attack submarine. The class represents an important element of China’s modernization of its navy. The Type 93’s mission is to defend the country’s limited number of nuclear ballistic missile submarines (SSBNs) from threats from hostile navies.

Well, their country and their economy are falling apart so who should think their military is constructed and managed any differently?
