中国提高无人水下能力
中国的科学和国防科学界已经公布了2019年最后一个季度内几个活跃的自主和无人水下航行器（AUV和UUV）开发计划，
展示了该国打算为军事和民用应用构建和部署越来越复杂和功能强大的系统。
In November
the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS)
announced that it had performed a 37-day trial in the South China Sea with the indigenously developed Haijing 2000 (Sea Whale 2000) AUV and covered a total distance of approximately 1,086 n miles.
Although the institute did not reveal the AUV’s mission path,
the claimed distance set a national record
and is the equivalent of a round trip from the People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN)’s strategic Yulin Naval Base to the Spratly Islands.
