    China, Australia and Thailand with plans to improve submarine fleets

    Australia has welcomed a Japanese offer to jointly-build a fleet of new submarines, with a possible deal by the end of the year.

    China, Australia and possibly Thailand are planning to increase, replace or incorporate modern submarines to their fleets according to reports from Asia-Pacific countries. In the case of China they are expected to be nuclear-powered attack subs armed with ballistic missiles and should be operational by 2020.
