The Type 095 (Chinese designation: 09-V, NATO Reporting Name: Sui class) is a class of latest generation nuclear-powered attack submarines under construction for the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) of China. It is anticipated that the Type 095 submarine will have a substantially reduced acoustic signature, within an improved hull design. Compared to the Type 093, the Type 095 will have a more advanced nuclear reactor, VLS cells and greater number of advanced sensors such as new active/passive flank array sonar and low- and high-frequency towed sonar array. Additionally, it is also speculated that Type 095 submarines may act as a potential underwater escort for any future Chinese aircraft carrier task forces. It is reported that Bohai Shipbuilding Heavy Industrial Corporation will be building the submarines in a new plant in the Huludao, Liaoning province. In February 2026 satellite images and synthetic-aperture radar suggested that an under construction Type 095 had been launched at Bohai Shipyard. The submarine is believed to have similar acoustic quieting technology used in Russia's Akula-class submarine.
