The incident involving the sinking of China’s new Zhou-class nuclear submarine highlights severe issues within the PLA's accountability and oversight of a defense industry riddled with corruption.
The Chinese government has made significant efforts to cover up the sinking of the nuclear submarine, revealing the PLA Navy's reluctance to disclose operational failures.
This submarine, built in the Wuchang Shipyard, is pivotal to China’s naval strategy, yet its fate raises alarms about the training standards and equipment quality.
Experts believe the disaster could have involved the submarine carrying nuclear fuel, which adds to the concerns regarding safety and operational security within the PLA.
