"...China has launched the first in a new class of nuclear submarines designed to fire intercontinental ballistic missiles, US defence officials said.

It was widely known that China was building the new class of nuclear-missile submarine, called the Type 094, but the launch is apparently far ahead of what US intelligence expected."
"...Type 094 SSBN is likely to be operational in the early part of the 21st century. It will be fitted with 16 launch tubes for the expanded range JL-2 sea-launched ballistic missile." [s]
