Description

The Type 039G is an improved version with reduced acoustic signature and enhanced underwater performance. Type 039G fixed the problems found on the lead ship which delayed its commissioning four to five years from 1994 when the boat was originally delivered to the PLAN. The first Type 039G entered service in 2001 and nine boats were commissioned by 2010. The Type 039G1 is a further improved version most likely fitted with Air Independent Propulsion (AIP) system.
