--The PLA has been developing nuclear submarines since the late 1950s, and the Type 091 No. 1 ship [Long March 1] was completed in 1974.
――After that, four ships of the same type were commissioned in the 1980s.
-The hull has a teardrop-shaped, double-shell structure, and it was initially thought that it was equipped with a vertical launch tube that could mount anti-ship missiles without reducing the number of torpedoes to be mounted, but in reality it was torpedo launching It was in the form of a horizontal launch from a tube.
――In addition, noise during navigation has become a problem, and measures have been taken by extending the hull by 8 m after the third ship.
――The pressurized water reactor turbo-electric system is adopted for the main engine, but it seems that radioactivity leakage occurred frequently due to structural defects because the pressurized water reactor for land use was installed for submarines without sufficient research. ..
--In the latter half of the 1970s, the development of a ballistic missile submarine was planned, and the type 091 was built by extending the type 091 hull, and the type 092 [Long March 6] (NATO) equipped with a submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM). The code name is summer class).
――It seems that one ship of Type 092 was built and belongs to the North Sea Fleet.
――This model is equipped with 12 submarine-launched ballistic missile launchers and can be launched while submerged.
--The product includes 1 kit each of 091 type and 092 type and 1 decal.
--When the kit is completed: 091 type total length about 14 cm, 092 type total length about 17 cm
