ALso from SAME > on news that Russia may convert TWO TYPHOON SLBM SUBS INTO CRUISE MISSLE-ONLY BOATS, that iff China cannot get Russia to LEASE TYPHOON SUBS for its PLAN it should make every effort to learn and REVERSE/RE-ENGINEER ITS OWN SIMILAR CLASS, AND FOR UTILITY AS FBM, BMD, UV and SLCM MULTI-MISSION, HYBRID OR "ARSENAL" STRATEGIC ATTACK SUBS???
