=== SSK === SSKs are traditional diesel-powered attack submarines. In RL diesel-electric submarines need air to run their diesel engines, and so they carry very large batteries for submerged operation. The need to recharge these batteries from the diesel engines limits the endurance of many of these submarines while submerged and may require them to surface regularly for extended periods, during which they are especially vulnerable to detection and attack. However the Yuan Class TL 102 Chinese Yuan Class Type 039A is equipped with an indigenously-developed AIP system, which allows the submarine to remain submerged on battery at slow speed for days or even weeks without having to surface to recharge batteries. The tactical flexibility, small size, and inherent stealth of such a system offers conventional diesel-electric submarines a remarkable increase in capability. The TL 86 British SSK-876 HMCS Victoria in RL were interim designs to quickly produce viable submarines with such advanced features as sound-absorbing acoustic tiles, while stronger nuclear designs were being completed.
