It is reported that the sub is able to submerge 500 meters deep and its military hardware ensures a powerful precision and long-distance strike at a target.

Japan plans to introduce the latest submarines into MSDF.

Of late the Japan "Self-Defense Forces", together with the U.S. forces, staged joint military exercises aimed to track and destroy submarines in the Pacific Ocean.

Commenting on the facts, Rodong Sinmun Friday says:

Japan increases the capability for preemptive attack and surprise strike by use of submarines. This is part of its sustained efforts to turn itself into a military giant with an aim of realizing its ambition for overseas expansion with the backing of the U.S.

Japan is clinging to the U.S. like a leech, thinking that it can realize without difficulties the ambition for overseas expansion with the backing of a big country.

It frequently stages joint military exercises with the U.S., accelerating the modernization of military hardware of the SDF under the patronage of its master to accumulate war experience for invading other countries.

The danger of war is increasingly becoming a reality in Asia due to the Japanese militarist forces.

Peace and security in the region are endangered owing to the Samurai descendents who are making desperate efforts to make up for defeat.

The Japanese reactionaries should discern the trend of the times. They may get into trouble if they view Asia today as what it used to be in the past.
