PRC sub in South China Sea accident
The Ministry of National Defense yesterday confirmed a Japanese newspaper report that a Chinese submarine had broken down while sailing near the Pratas (Tungsha) Islands.
The Yomiuri Shimbun daily reported that a Chinese Type 035 Ming-class submarine had to surface and was guarded by four Chinese navy vessels.

The submarine was soon towed back to its base in Hainan Province by a fifth Chinese vessel.

2. This class isn't worth towing back, should make a reef instead

Obsolete piece of crap. Noisy, slow, & easy to detect.
