Can Pakistan Navy rent PLAN's nuke submarine??

Are you for the record, suggesting a submarine as an underwater storage warehouse for nuclear weapons?

Why not that's what the US, Russia and China uses them for. Places to hid your nukes for a second strike capability.
 
India is only getting a nuclear sub as political stunt..the in atmosphere of sub continent it doesnt serve much purpose. Pakistan should look into acquiring small but fast and highly mobile regular sub with stealth designs. A close take on indian nuke sub would take it to the ocean floor.
 
Yes they must get 1 but i dont think they will get from their neighbors
 
They leased a Type 091 submarine after India leased a Charlie class submarine from Russia.

As of now, it is possible for Pakistan to lease the Type 092 SSBN, but that will create a huge outrage in the West.

However, due to Pakistan's area of operation, a few Type 039G1s or Type 041s would be more than sufficient for defense and attack.
 
When were nuclear subs faster than conventional? Nuclear submarines are significantly slower because acoustic restrictions disallow generators to operate at full capacity.

The majority of countries still favor conventional because it's faster, safer, more quiet, easier to design, economical, and politically viable.

Nuclear subs are much larger in volume due to the minimum space reactors and filtering systems occupy. Thus, it is more cost effective to lower the hull-to-reactor ratio by enlarging the entire design for more arsenal. These attack subs are significantly larger and much louder on the move. That is why most countries focus on nuclear ballistic submarines where mobility is not a priority. Nuclear attack subs are falling out of favor worldwide due to export and operational restrictions.
LOL, what have you been smoking? Conventional sub faster than nuclear ones?

Take the Seawolf class SSN for example, it is capable of doing more than 35+ knots submerged. For conventional subs, they're lucky if they can touch 20 on full diesel power.
 
We are talking about SSNs and definitely not SSBM. Handing Pakistan a fully loaded Jin class sub with 24 nuclear tipped+MIRVed JL-2s (14,000km) would break just about every international convention on the books.

I was wondering just that.
