there were several designations "type 093B" in the past.
So I will not use it in order to avoid confusion.
But this coul well be one example of the latest 093 version, which was photographed at Huludao recently, seen here in the Sanya #submarine base

**UPDATE**
Got a lot of pings re the unidentified Russian 'submarine' in Kaliningrad shared on the other site (x.com/benreuter_IM...)
It is a decoy they made around this time last year and there a few months. They moved it around and rebuilt it. Final version looked a bit like a polytunnel. #OSINT
I have observed quite a lot of Russian submarines but this one is new to me.
Maybe someone has an idea.
Here are Aug 2024 images of Baltisk Base / Kaliningrad.
North of the well known Kilo class sub we can see another sub. Length is about 70m.
First I thought of a "Lada class" but I think it's not
60 years after the construction of the "Machon 2"(underground) plutonium segregation facility in #Dimona, it now seems time for a replacement/expansion, in order to maintain Israels Nuclear Forces in the future.
Other construction activities are also evident in the vast compound
The Iranian SSM attack back in April / October 2024 caused some 38 warhead impacts on Nvatim AB.
Remains are still visible!
Two service hangars for the vital G550 AWACS/SIGINT aircraft are now under repair.
This forced the entire G550 fleet to stand in the open along the apron
It seem that the operational base of the mysterious
RA-01 Stealth Drone has got two new halls.
Moreover the constuction of a new extension just next to this special compound within the Ramon AB can be observed.
This may indicate further expansion of activities with stealth drones from there
Both #ABM systems, the US THAAD & Israeli Arrow are heavily involved in intercepting Houthi MRBMs.
Interesting that the US brought in a second AN/TPY-2 (in addition to the permanent station at Mt Keren/Negev).
In addition Israel transfered one Oren Yarok / Oren Adir Radar to the southern Negev

the Algerians started it once.
They "camouflaged" or rather "decorated" their S-300P bases as soccer fields.
The Chinese seem to like basketball.
Some of their newly built DF-5 silos now appear as basketball courts.
If an alarm is raised, the game will probably be stopped 😃
