The Type 031 is similar (but not identical) to the Soviet “Golf-I” class. Built at Dalian shipyard, it is the only ballistic missile submarine to have license-built outside it’s home country. The boat was launched into service in September 1964, according to Chinese sources.
Chinese-built to Russian plans, this submarine was originally fitted for three Russian SLBMs. Because the first-generation Chinese SLBMs (JL-1) were larger in diameter than the Soviet missiles, it only has two launch silos in the sail.
