Don't know why people are neglecting the Kilo. This one may be old but still ugly and better than our Ming class without a doubt. The sub has various weapon launching capability including Club variants. If Myanmar integrate any one of them (which they obviously will as there's strong possibility of buying newer Kilo or Amur/Lada) this will be serious headache as Type-39/S-20-26, Chang Bogo or any other affordable conventional submarine can't offer such variety of weapons like Russian with various ranges. And this one is specially still hard to find even with modern sensors.
The production of this one closed long ago. Why would they build an obsolete sub again? Besides our shipyards don't have that type of capability yet.
Nagapasa/Chang Bogo is a Type-209 variant not Type-214.
You are supposed to overestimate your enemies not underestimate them!
Myanmar getting a Kilo is a problem.
No one should think otherwise.
