Mapping deep sea for submarine warfare? China’s survey from Pacific to Indian Ocean raises red flags
China is significantly expanding its undersea mapping and monitoring operations across key oceans, gathering data crucial for submarine warfare. Research vessels are systematically surveying strategically important areas, reflecting a dual-use strategy combining civilian science with defense objectives. This effort aims to improve China's ability to deploy submarines and track adversaries in sensitive waters.
