Submarine Power में America को कैसे पछाड़ रहा है China? जानिए Saurabh Shahi से

Описание: In the ever-evolving chess game of global naval supremacy, a significant shift has just occurred beneath the waves. For decades, the US and Russia held the mantle of submarine giants, but a new report by Saurabh Shahi for The Red Mike suggests the tide is turning. While the US leads in total numbers, China has overtaken Russia in fleet size and is now aggressively outpacing America.

The New Naval Order: Key Takeaways:

China Claims Silver: China is now the world’s second-largest submarine power with 32 vessels, pushing Russia (28) to the third spot.
Production Surge: Between 2020 and 2025, China built nearly 2.5 times more military ships than the US, South Korea, and Japan combined.
The "One Plus Two" Race: China is successfully hitting its annual production targets of one ballistic missile sub and two guided-missile subs—a feat the US is struggling to match.
Indian Context: India remains far behind with 18 submarines.

[00:00:00 - 00:03:00] The Great Leap Under the Sea
The segment kicks off with a wake-up call regarding the shifting rankings. While the US still leads with 71 submarines, China’s rapid climb to 32 has disrupted the long-standing status quo. China’s shipyards are churning out vessels at a pace that dwarfs Western allies.

Shahi’s Insight [01:20]: "न्यूक्लियर सबमरीन के पावर में प्रोडक्शन के स्पीड में चीन ने अमेरिका को पछाड़ दिया है... पिछले 5 सालों में चीन ने अमेरिका को काफी पीछे छोड़ दिया है।"

[00:03:01 - 00:07:10] Understanding the Tech: SSN, SSBN, and SSGN
To grasp the gravity of this, Shahi breaks down the terminology. Most navies rely on SSNs (Attack Submarines) as workhorses for hunting other ships. However, the real "strategic assets" are SSBNs (Ballistic Missile subs for second-strike nuclear capability) and SSGNs (Guided Missile subs for massive cruise missile volleys).

Shahi’s Insight [07:32]: "हर 4 साल में चीनी नेवी अब फ्रांस के टोटल नेवल कैपेसिटी के बराबर एसेट्स ऐड कर रही है।"

[00:07:11 - 00:11:45] The "One Plus Two" Output System
The US has a goal called the "1+2 system"—delivering one Columbia-class and two Virginia-class subs annually. But because of massive cost overruns and delays, this goal looks like a pipe dream until at least 2028. Meanwhile, China’s "Type 094" and "Type 093B" programs are already hitting these targets..

Shahi’s Insight [09:04]: "चीन ने ऑलरेडी यह टारगेट अचीव कर लिया है... अमेरिका ने जो 2028 का टारगेट रखा है वो रियलिस्टिक नजर नहीं आ रहा है।"

[00:11:46 - 00:14:30] Silence vs. Range: The JL-3 Factor
A common critique of Chinese subs is their "acoustic signature"—they aren't as quiet as Russian or US subs. However, Shahi explains how Beijing has bypassed this weakness. By developing the JL-3 long-range missile, Chinese subs can stay safe in their own well-protected coastal waters and still strike the continental United States.

Shahi’s Insight [13:04]: "वो अमेरिकन सबमरीन की जद में आए बगैर कॉन्टिनेंटल अमेरिका को हिट कर सकते हैं... यह अमेरिका के लिए बहुत बड़ी परेशानी का सबब है।"

[00:14:31 - 00:16:17] Infrastructure and Vulnerabilities
Satellite imagery shows massive expansion at China’s Bohai and Huludao shipyards. More "berths" mean more subs under construction simultaneously. However, China faces one natural hurdle: a lack of deep-water ports.

Shahi’s Insight [15:43]: "चीन ने ना सिर्फ रशिया को बल्कि इन टर्म्स ऑफ प्रोडक्शन रेट उसने अमेरिका को भी पीछे छोड़ दिया है और यह अमेरिका के फोर्स प्रोजेक्शन के लिए बहुत बड़ा खतरा बन गया है।"

Conclusion
This report makes it clear: the era of undisputed US underwater dominance is fading. China's industrial might is being successfully weaponized to build a "Great Wall of Steel" under the ocean. For countries like India, the message is a stark warning—while we struggle with aging fleets and procurement delays, our neighbor is adding the equivalent of a "full French Navy" to its arsenal every four years.
